Description

Many cities around the world have already experimented with different interventions to try to limit the displacement of long-term residents. These include different forms of rent controls and social housing minimums for new developments, along with different regulations and policies. Such interventions are very much context, country and city specific and there is no one-size-fits-all policy for every case.

Potential Elements
  • Rent controls
  • Social housing minimum quotas for new developments
  • Bottom-up housing concepts/ building cooperatives
