ETEK Presents Nine Proposals for Affordable Housing

The Scientific and Technical Chamber of Cyprus (ETEK) has submitted nine proposals to the OECD for the development of affordable housing, as part of the technical assistance project for Cyprus's housing policy. The proposals concern the creation of a Unified Housing Policy Agency, the activation of vacant homes, changes of use and urban regeneration, the development of the build-to-rent model, and the regulation of short-term rentals. ETEK emphasizes the need for data and measurable elements in decision-making, as well as addressing both the quantitative and qualitative problems in housing provision.
