Housing
Mauritius has built its economic development on the premise of its determination to maintain, enhance and expand a welfare state for its citizens. Sensitive to the basic need of every individual for proper housing, several schemes are implemented to provide a roof for every family. The implementation of decent housing projects for low income families not only ensures the social integration of vulnerable groups into mainstream society but also addresses the problems of inadequate and poor housing conditions. These planned developmental projects make sure that people of all strata of the society, especially those from the lower rung of the social ladder, benefit from an equal economic empowerment.
