Project Details

AHI was contracted by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to be the Affordable Housing Specialist on a team that provided technical assistance for the ADB Affordable Housing and Urban Renewal Project.  The project was a complex multisector project requiring full scale due diligence in technical, economic, financial, social, resettlement, environmental, and institutional aspects. The goal of the project was to improve housing conditions in the Ulaanbaatar ger areas (semi-formal settlements).  The project outcome was the establishment of replicable, sustainable, and comprehensive solutions for affordable housing and ger area redevelopment. The project was expected to have four outputs: (i) mixed-use, mixed-income, and resource efficient ecodistricts built in ger areas; (ii) established mechanisms for delivery of affordable housing units; (iii) improved urban redevelopment process and standards; and (iv) strengthened project management and institutions for urban redevelopment and affordable housing.
