Housing

According to a recent World Bank report, Pakistan faces a substantial housing deficit of 10 million units, encompassing not only homelessness but also inadequate housing characterized by substandard construction materials, poor quality, and a lack of basic facilities. To effectively improve the quality of life for individuals, it is imperative to comprehend the socio-cultural and economic systems of low-income populations to develop contextually appropriate solutions. ADRL focuses its research on Housing as a Social System, aiming to identify sustainable, culturally aligned, and cost-effective solutions that address the housing needs of the lower strata of Pakistani society.
