YEREVAN (PanARMENIAN.Net), June 24–In its efforts to offer affordable housing solutions to low-income families in Armenia in need of decent housing conditions, Habitat for Humanity has recently launched several projects in various regions of Armenia.

Habitat for Humanity Armenia is implementing housing intervention and housing micro financing projects in Yerevan, as well as in the regions of Ararat, Lori, Tavush, Gegharkunik and the city of Spitak.

Social housing is another innovative project that Habitat for Humanity is involved with. The initiative will be implemented by a consortium of three Armenian organizations in partnership with several Dutch organizations experienced in the housing sector.
