About the Committee

The UNECE Committee on Urban Development, Housing and Land Management, established in 1947, is the only intergovernmental body addressing shared housing, urban development and land management challenges across 56 member States in the UNECE region.

The Committee includes representatives of governmental institutions - ministries, agencies - dealing with housing, economic development, urban planning and development, and land administration and management. It facilitates dialogue between governments and supports knowledge transfer on innovative practices, gives advice and develops policy guidelines to address common housing, urban development, and land administration and management problems.
