Affordable Housing:

Principles for Domestic and International Changing Markets

 

A Harvard Graduate School of Design Executive Education course led by

David A. Smith

We are excited to announce that we will once again be teaching Affordable Housing Principles for Domestic and International Changing Markets through Harvard GSD Executive Education. Affordable housing is the foundation of cities and healthy households; more important than ever, in a post-Covid world.  Whatever road has led you to affordable housing – development, finance, investment, urban planning, design, policy, or health – this course will provide you with insights and expertise you can find nowhere else.

? Date: September 27-29, 2023.

? Location: Harvard University, Cambridge, MA

? Course Highlights:

✅ Learn durable and globally applicable principles, practices, and approaches to change, that apply to any urban affordable housing challenge.

✅ Learn and apply AHI’s proprietary Housing Value Chain Framework, across four domains: housing in cities, homes and loans as products, finding the money and making the transaction viable, and leading into the future.

✅ Discover how to adapt principles, practices, and approaches to individual contexts.

✅ Draw lessons from dozens of countries around the world, developed and emerging.

✅ Master the universal imperatives of affordable housing and understand how they can be adapted by place, policy, and laws

✅ For US practitioners, get a new perspective on development opportunities and tenure models beyond LIHTC.

✅ Understand the pathways by which political or market desires can be converted into successful housing developments.

✅ Explore and work through a ‘real hypothetical’ case history of urban redevelopment and transformation whose elements run the gamut from urban policy to nuts-and-bolts economics.

✅ Recognize development and redevelopment opportunities in an urban context. Identify financial and subsidy resources that, if tapped, turn uneconomic eyesores into profitable development opportunities.

✅ Gain the insight to decide whether and how to enter, expand, or reposition your company’s or agency’s involvement with affordable housing.
