Effective Targeting for Basic Shelter Provision
针对发展中国家收入和政治权力不平等的问题，提出了一个住房可负担性模型，分析收入、家庭规模、城市化等因素的动态关系，以帮助精准制定面向穷人的住房策略。
In the context of the inegalitarian distribution of income and political power in many developing countries, prudent planning of basic shelter provision requires a careful targeting of housing strategies for the poor. To support such targeting, the paper presents a housing affordability model that analyzes the dynamic relationships among income and income distribution, changes in family size, urbanization, housing, consumption, and cost of and access to credit. The resultant estimates of affordable housing by the poor shifts the polity focus to the appropriate means of supply. The model application in Nigeria highlights the importance of geographic aspects of effective targeting.
