2. Meaning of Housing:
• Generally speaking, housing may be defined as an architectural unit for
accommodation in order to protect the occupants from the forces of
nature.
• But in wider meaning housing covers all the services and community
facilities which are essential to human well being.
• In addition to the physical structure, it includes water supply, sanitation,
and disposal of water, recreation and other basic amenities of life.
• Thus housing can be defined as a component architectural structure
within a total system consisting of various settlement variables.

3. Role of Housing:
• Housing is closely associated to the process of overall socio-economic
development.
• It provides shelter and raises the quality of life.
• It improves the quality of health, sanitation and education.

• Moreover it helps to improve urban rural equality by narrowing down
the difference in the standard of living.
• Thus housing performs multiple functions including many social needs
of the household.
