A delegation from the WAEMU commission is in talks with the Togolese authorities towards the implementation of the government’s project to build affordable housing for low-income individuals. The meeting started yesterday in Lomé.

The delegation is led by the coordinator of the technical assistance component of the WAEMU Affordable Housing Finance Project. The delegation will provide financial engineering, legal counselling, project management, and designing support. It will also provide institutional support. 

Togo aims to build, by 20,000 decent and affordable housing units for low and middle-income people by 2025. This is expected to bridge the existing deficit for these facilities and improve housing quality.
