Stable and affordable housing is critical to breaking barriers to better, healthier, more financially stable lives. A decent home opens the door to improved health, better performance in school, greater economic opportunities and increased community cohesion. Housing plays a pivotal role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the blueprint for a better and more sustainable future for all by 2030.
For the last 6 years, the India Housing Forum has gathered major stakeholders engaged in seeking solutions to affordable housing issues under one roof, to promote decent housing as a driver of economic growth. Since the inaugural conference in 2015, the forum has witnessed delegates from the Government, private and development sector who have not only shared common ground, but also presented diverse views through insightful plenaries and engaging tracks.  
The objective of the forum is to build collaboration to impact cost effective housing sector in India and contribute to the Government of India’s vision of ‘Housing for All’. It also aims to recognize and act on the importance of housing as a driver of inclusion, resilience and sustainability in human settlements, and promote leaders and sector players in innovative and high impact housing initiatives through the sharing of best practices.
