Global Challenges
Informal Settlements
UN-Habitat estimates that in 2014 there was
881 million people living in slums in developing
country cities. This represents an increase of 28%
over the past 24 years. Still, in 2014, 30 % of urban
population of developing countries resided in
slums, compared to 39 % in the year 2000.
Housing Demand
One billion new homes are needed worldwide
by 2025, costing an estimated $650 billion per
year, or US$9-11 trillion overall.
Affordability
Very often, affordable housing is inadequate; and
adequate housing is usually unaffordable. Public
housing represents 15% of all the inventory of
developed and developing countries.
Planning
Housing accounts for more than 70% of land use
in most cities.
Sustainability
Households consume up to 19% of the global
energy. To achieve sustainable cities, energy
efficient homes are needed.

In Mexico, 75% of land in urban

context corresponds to housing.

Right to Housing

Universal Declaration of Human

Rights in 1948: the right to housing
has been recognized as one of the
important components of the right Social Economic Environmental
to an adequate standard of living.

Right to housing within the

framework of the United Nations
Habitat Program, 1996

Governments must adopt

appropriate measures to promote,
protect and ensure the full and
gradual achievement of the right
to adequate housing.

Right to Housing in Mexico

The Mexican Constitution

indicates in its fourth article that
“every family has the right to enjoy
decent and decorous housing”.

1—NO POVERTY
In the last 26 years, there has been
a 30% reduction in the number of
people who lack quality and space
in their homes.
Criterion for measuring poverty in Mexico:
Current income per capita, not having
access to basic education, health services,
social security, no access to quality housing,
not having basic services at home, low food
availability and lack of social cohesion.
3—GOOD HEALTH AND WELL-BEING
81% of the population has access to basic
services in their living place
The characteristics of home environment have an impact
on the health prognosis of its inhabitants, especially
basic services. This is one of the most sensitive indicators
of the scope of development and social marginality.
5—GENDER EQUALITY
42% of female-headed
households own their home while
91% of male-headed household
own their homes.
There is strong competition for land
and housing among the growing urban
populations and, in many parts of the world,
women are in a disadvantaged position since
their ability to access land and housing often
depends on their link to the male gender.
7—AFFORDABLE AND CLEAN ENERGY
The residential sector is responsible for 15%
of the final consumption of energy in Mexico,
out of which 5% comes from renewable
sources.
Energy is the main factor in development. It is needed
for industrial and commercial activities, buildings
and infrastructure. If housing is considered to be
the backbone of the urban context, it is evident that
the production of energy by renewable sources is a
fundamental element to achieve sustainable energy.
16
2—ZERO HUNGER
10% of households with lower
income dedicate 50.7% of their
spending to food, while 10% of
household with higher income
devote only 22.5% to food-
related items.
As families create their budgets, they are not
able to reduce or eliminate the cost of rent,
and with the progressive loss of purchasing
power of their wages, they encounter
reduced access to basic food items.
4—QUALITY EDUCATION
58% of institutions of post-secondary education
tend to be concentrated in urban areas.
There are four variables related to housing that influence
educational performance. These are: the amount of
family income, the quality of the home’s construction, the
conditions of the neighborhood where it is located, and
whether or not the family owns the home.
6—CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION
89% of housing in Mexico has public water
and drainage.
Living in a home requires adequate functioning of
technical networks within the community, such as
those which provide the supply of drinking water,
evacuation of liquid residuals, solid waste collection
services, electric power, telephone services, and radio-
electric communications.
8—DECENT WORK AND
ECONOMIC GROWTH
The housing sector represents
13.9% of GDP and generates a
total of 2.9 million jobs.
The housing sector is very important to the
economy because it generates wealth for
the population and improves the quality
of life for Mexicans. The real estate sector
makes numerous contributions to the
country’s economy by nurturing various
sectors from the banking and financial
to the construction materials sector and
stimulating job creation.
9—INDUSTRY INNOVATION AND
INFRASTRUCTURE
The companies that produce
housing in Mexico are micro and
small in size; 4 out of 5 correspond
to this category, that is 81.11%.
Access to financing by small and medium-
sized construction companies and other
companies in the housing sector has
the potential to strengthen the domestic
market and help the industry grow.
11—SUSTAINABLE CITIES AND
COMMUNITIES
In Mexico 75% of land use in urban
context corresponds to housing.
Improving the safety and sustainability
of cities implies guaranteeing access
to safe and affordable housing and the
improvement of marginal settlements.
It also includes making investments
in public transportation, creating
green public areas and improving
urban planning and management in a
participatory and inclusive manner.
13—CLIMATE ACTION
95.9% of people affected by
a natural phenomena was by
hydrometeorological event.
The likelihood of weather-related events
occurring will increase even more with
climate change and the rise of global
temperatures. Avoiding the location of
housing in high-risk areas susceptible to
weather-related disaster, is a fundamental
part to strengthen the resilience and
adaptability of cities.
15—LIFE ON LAND
Mexico has 176 Natural Protected Areas,
where 1.52% of the population of Mexico lives.
Protected Natural Areas preserve ecosystems, and
thereby contribute to reducing vulnerability and risks
in the face of climate change. However these areas
are threatened by the expansion of cities, degradation,
reduced availability of water and conflicts associated
with access and control of natural assets.
10—REDUCED INEQUALITIES
62.3% of subsidies were granted to
people who have a monthly income
of 2.6 times minimum wage.
Affordable sustainable housing, improved
access to adequate housing, safe
and ecological policies and a degree
of redistribution of wealth as well as
opportunities in favor of disadvantaged
groups are important tools to reduce the
social gap and strengthen social justice
reform.
12—RESPONSIBLE CONSUMPTION AND
PRODUCTION
9.63% of solid waste in urban areas of Mexico
is recycled.
The levels of construction and demolition waste
production have increased in the last decades, causing
an environmental problem. It is crucial to reduce, reuse
and recycle the materials involved in the different
processes, as well as ensure their proper final disposal.
14—LIFE BELOW WATER
Currently, the metropolization
of 11 zones around the country is
under requested. Four of them
are along the coast.
The trends of growth and concentration
of population continue to manifest in
recent years, including the urbanization
of risk and protected areas, directly
threatening the conservation of coastal
and maritime zones.
16—PEACE, JUSTICE AND STRONG
INSTITUTIONS
70.3% of the population feels safe in their
home.
The lack of domestic facilities and the need to walk
to access these facilities make women and children
vulnerable and exposed to violence and rape. Locating
facilities closer to homes, improving the design and
safety of streets and providing public transport and
road infrastructures can mitigate these problems.
17—PARTNERSHIPS FOR THE GOALS
The construction of better cities throughout
Mexico will require the coordinated efforts
of all levels of government and in multiple
areas of public policy.

“Infonavit is an institution that has a very important social
dimension, in support of workers. Strengthening it is essential for
the development of the country”.
—Andrés Manuel López Obrador | President of Mexico
