The upcoming Arab Housing & Community Development Forum is all set to address the growing housing market in the Arab world amidst the ever-evolving global economic landscape.
The Arab Housing Forum, from September 11th to the 12th at the prestigious Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, is congregating industry experts, government representatives, developers, investors, and other key stakeholders looking into pressing matters surrounding the housing market in the Arab world.
As the Arab world constitutes approximately 6 percent of the global population, ensuring adequate and sustainable housing has become a pivotal necessity for the region’s stability and progress. The housing industry in the Arab world is poised for transformative growth, with projections indicating substantial expansion.
Earlier this year, UAE set aside funds to build up to 76,000 new homes in the next five years valued at over $23 billion for its citizens. Regionally, the Saudi Arabian real estate industry is anticipated to reach a value of $161.3 billion within the same year.
The Arab Housing & Community Development Forum is ideal for examining the rapid advancements and challenges within the housing sector, aligning them with global sustainability initiatives.
