The contribution of building centres to low-cost housing in India
The author argues that the government's role could change from being the provider to becoming a facilitator. Progress in the Building Centre Programme in India has been slow and a three pronged policy is advocated — examining archaic rules, disseminating technical information, and training in updated technologies whilst continuing with those technologies that are cost-effective. D'apres l'auteur, le gouvernement pourrait passer du role de prestataire a celui de catalyseur. L'avancement du programme de 'Centres de construction' en Inde a marque certains retards. On preconise, pour en accelerer la mise en oeuvre, une action sur trois fronts - l'analyse critique de regles archaiques, la diffusion d'informations techniques, la formation aux technologies recentesainsi que la preservation des techniques s'etant revelees les plus rentables.
