Driving Effective Sustainable Housing Infrastructure Delivery in South Africa Through Incorporation of Socioeconomic Development factor
The provision and improvement of housing infrastructure have been identified as a major strategy to advance socioeconomic development (SED) and reduce poverty, unemployment, and inequalities. The study aims to provide insight into incorporating SED factors into the housing infrastructure delivery process in South Africa (SA). The objective examined the context and scope in which SED factors can be integrated into housing infrastructure delivery in SA.
A qualitative data approach was adopted, and content analysis was utilized to extract key elements of socioeconomic development for housing delivery to facilitate accessibility, social cohesion, equity, social services, and well-being. The findings identified barriers to housing infrastructure delivery in terms of political interference, bureaucracies, and corruption.More needs to be done to make housing delivery more inclusive by ensuring that sustainable housing infrastructure strategies are integrated into national development planning from the SED perspective as well as public-private partnerships in housing delivery. The study findings will assist stakeholders in mapping out strategies for delivering sustainable housing infrastructure in SA.
