This paper examines and analyzes housing policies in the Seventh Five-Year Development Plan of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Considering the rapid population growth and increasing demand for housing, the study aims to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the policies adopted in this development plan. The research employs a qualitative methodology, including content analysis of official documents and government reports related to housing policies, to identify objectives, strategies, and specific actions in this field. |
The findings reveal that the Seventh Five-Year Plan adopts a comprehensive approach aimed at increasing housing supply, renovating deteriorated urban areas, and providing land for low-income and vulnerable groups. Key measures include supporting private sector investment, allocating state-owned lands without residency conditions, and offering low-interest banking facilities. These initiatives are expected to reduce social and economic inequalities. However, challenges such as the need for coordination among various institutions and securing sufficient financial resources for policy implementation persist. Ultimately, this research provides insights that can help policymakers develop more effective strategies to meet society's housing needs based on past experiences.
