About Us
For over 35 years, the International Housing Association (IHA) has provided a unique housing policy and solutions forum, bringing together housing sector leaders from countries around the world.
The IHA’s growing membership spans nations from six continents and includes both developed and developing countries. The IHA provides an international forum to address globally significant priority areas identified by member countries.
MEMBERSHIP INSIGHTS
The International Housing Association (IHA) provides its members with valuable global insights into housing challenges, enabling them to adapt tested solutions to their local contexts. By collaborating with organizations like the World Bank and IMF, the IHA enhances these entities' understanding of housing dynamics worldwide. In return, members benefit from the knowledge and data shared by these organizations, strengthening their expertise in global markets and informing domestic housing policies and initiatives.
IHA CHAIRMANSHIP
The IHA chairmanship is currently held by the Japan International Association for the Industry of Urban Development, Building and Housing (JUBH). The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) serves as the secretariat. Further information regarding the IHA, global housing concerns, and potential solutions identified by IHA members can be found in the IHA Bylaws or by contacting the IHA Secretariat.
