ComHabitat

ComHabitat is the Commonwealth’s principle mechanism for addressing human settlements concerns. It is a partnership which consists of a number of different stakeholders.

These include:

  • Commonwealth Consultative Group on Human Settlements
  • Commonwealth Association of Planners
  • Commonwealth Foundation
  • Commonwealth Human Ecology Council
  • Commonwealth Local Government Forum
  • Commonwealth Secretariat
  • Homeless International

The partnership brings together agencies representing governments, local governments, civil societies and professional organisations with the aim of implementing the UN Habitat Agenda.

All of these stakeholders are actively involved in addressing human settlements concerns in their own spheres. However, ComHabitat allows them to co-operate to achieve their goals though networking, advocacy, information sharing and the promotion of integrated approaches.
