Abstract:
Several international studies have already mentioned various policy instruments to promote the sociallymixed housing policy that supports many cities to achieve inclusionary housing goals. One of the greatest challenges facing cities in Germany is the current housing shortage, especially of affordable housing and the provision of adequate social infrastructure. The main causes are the strong influx into the cities and the rapidly rising land prices. To solve these problems several German cities have developed and established cooperative urban land development (CULD) models. This study aims to review inclusionary housing policy and present a firm introduction on a land development policy instrument CULD that supports among other targets the creation of affordable housing in Germany. It includes a description of this model that has social, economic and planning goals.
