The Integrated Land Management Institute (ILMI), at the Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST), has been appointed by the Ministry of Urban and Rural Development (MURD) to revise the mass housing blueprint as well as to develop an implementation strategy for the programme.

ILMI/NUST submitted a proposal for a tender announced in August 2016 (Exemption number E1/15-1/2016), and we were happy to have received in December 2016 the communication about the successful result of our submission.

The team we have assembled consists of land administrators, town planners, architects, land surveyors, economists, sociologists, engineers, as well as a community organisers.

The team will be working on this during the first quarter of the year. More information about the project will be communicated throughout the process via an online platform soon to be announced.

Our efforts are geared for this project to contribute to the furthering of the right ot adequate housing in Namibia.
