Strategies and alternatives to address the housing deficit and promote the development of value chains related to construction and sustainable housing were also discussed.

This fund would seek to expand the financing of projects and programmes with a significant impact on improving climate change resilience and/or reducing greenhouse gas emissions in urban areas.
