    Equity fund for affordable and energy-efficient housing projects in Namibia and Botswana

    The project comprises a programme of investments in social housing by International Housing Solutions, an investment fund operating through local property developers in Namibia and Botswana, entailing a mix of new-build single family and multi-family buildings in urban and suburban areas. The EIB will require that each of those investments meet all local and EIB environmental requirements.
