Marking six years today in delivering housing solutions to Filipinos, especially in marginalized communities, the Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD) has been instrumental in developing strong shelters that build up thriving communities in the Philippines.
Established in 2019, the DHSUD has the mission to develop and regulate housing projects across the country. It is specifically tasked with ensuring that the basic housing needs of all Filipino families are met. It oversees housing policies, housing programs, urban planning and development.
The DHSUD has emerged from the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council (HUDCC), a government agency that coordinates government shelter activities; and the Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board (HLURB), which regulates housing and development. The department also oversees the country’s key shelter agencies, such as the National Housing Authority, Pag-IBIG Fund, Social Housing Financing Corp., and the National Home Mortgage Finance Corp.
