Background Housing Program For Informal Settler Families Living Along Danger Areas in The Metro Manila

This document outlines a housing program for informal settler families living in dangerous areas in Metro Manila. The program focuses on relocating and resettling families living along waterways and other at-risk areas through low-rise, in-city housing developments on government land when possible. If in-city plans are not feasible, off-city resettlement will be pursued. The policy guidelines specify that relocation should be on-site, near the city, or in the city according to a People's Plan developed through community consultation.
