Abstract

This paper discussed the housing production and supply system in Lusaka, ZAMBIA based on field research. Through housing surveys and interview to relevant sectors, following findings emerged.
1. The residential differences between housing areas were understood by the ownership and improvement ways.
2. It was tried to show the housing production and supply structure using pattern diagram.
3. After democratization, the owner-managed housing construction which before then mainly supplied in unplanned areas became common to build in planned areas too. Both formal and informal entities participated rather randomly their construction process without systematic support system.
