The Ugly Reality on the Global Housing Crisis


The world is experiencing a global housing crisis. About 1.6 billion people live in substandard housing and 100 million are homeless, according to the United Nations.  These people are increasingly urban residents, and every week more than a million people are born in, or move to, cities in the developing world.  Today, a billion people -- 32 per cent of the global urban population -- live in urban slums. If no serious action is taken, the United Nations reports that the number of slum dwellers worldwide will increase over the next 30 years to nearly 2 billion.

In the United Sates alone, 95 million people, one third of the nation, have housing problems including payments too large a percentage of their income, overcrowding, poor quality shelter and homelessness. Throughout the world, people live in inadequate housing, it's possible to make a difference by raising awarness and raising dollars to asist in providing decent, affordable homes for those in need.
