Poverty reduction and settlements Sample Clauses

Poverty reduction and settlements. Law 388 in 1997, also referred to as ‘Ley de Desarollo Territorial’ (Territorial Development Law), determines improvements of neighbourhoods and housing as one of the key areas of land use planning in the city (UNDP, 2007). In 1998, a programme aimed at improving illegal settlements was adopted named the Low-income Population Housing Agency (Caja de Vivienda Popular, CVP). This agency develops programmes which address the challenges arising from more than 175,000 inhabitants arriving in Bogota each year. The major goal of the programme is to change the legalisation in these areas to improve living conditions. Following this programme, the Land Use Plan (Plan de Ordenamietno Territorial, POT) has been adopted in 2000 for a period of ten years under the Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx'x Administration (UNDP, 2007). This programme included low-cost housing projects for low-income households, comprehensive slum upgrading programmes and resettlement for people located in high-risk areas. This programme aimed at moving households to safe, suitable houses in other parts of the city, thus strengthening their social and economic inclusion. In addition, steps were also taken to monitor the occupation of land that is unsuitable for urbanization, in order to limit the number of resettled people. The Relocation of Families of “Altos de la Estancia” in Bogota programme focuses on the relocation of families out of high risk zones to improve living conditions (Xxxxx, 2005). The area at risk between 1999 and 2000 included an area of 70 hectares and 3,000 families, including kindergartens, schools, parks and public facilities. A total of 3,033 families were subscribed to the programme. Of these a total of 1,800 families or approximately 6,000 people have been resettled using about COP 20bn (EUR 6.6m). The strategy was promoted by the SDPAE and financed through the district which invested COP 50bn (EUR 15m) since the beginning until the year 2005. Table 8.4 shows the distribution of funds financing this project until 2005. The majority of funds were carried by CVP.
