​Background
The existing National Housing Policy was launched in 2011. This inaugural housing policy set out a strategic direction for achieving ‘affordable and decent housing for all” in Fiji.
The Ministry of Housing is revising the National Housing Policy to reflect the evolving context, priorities, challenges, issues and needs within the housing sector. The working draft of the revised National Housing Policy, now out for consultation, builds on the existing National Housing Policy 2011, the background research and analysis of available housing statistics undertaken by the Ministry and the outcomes of the stakeholder consultation workshop held in May 2024.
​
​Policy Purpose
​The revised National Housing Policy will provide overall strategic direction and comprehensive vision for the further development of the housing sector in Fiji. The revised policy will highlight areas of required focus to address priority issues and guide implementation activity in an integrated manner to tackle identified sectoral challenges.
​​
Revised Draft
The revised draft of the National Housing Policy:
* Considers and responds to contemporary housing issues and challenges
* Proposes a new vision and outcomes for the housing sector
* Sets guiding principles that will inform collective actions and decision making
* Outlines areas of strategic focus and implementation actions proposed over the next 5 years
