Ethiopia: Options for Expanding Affordable Housing Supply for Industrial Park Workers
Ethiopia has registered high levels of economic growth, averaging 10 percent per year over the last decade. To sustain GDP growth at double digits, industrial and export-led growth has become the central focus of the Government of Ethiopia (GoE), as acknowledged by its Growth and Transformation Plan. A key strategy used by the Government to transition to a manufacturing led industrialization is the establishment of Industrial Parks (IPs) to attract investors, mobilize workers, and create the necessary enabling environment for investment.
