Housing developers and policymakers will convene in Makati this October to address the country’s chronic housing backlog, as the Subdivision and Housing Developers Association, Inc. (SHDA) stages its 33rd National Developers Convention.

The two-day event, set for October 9-10 at the Makati Shangri-La, comes as the Marcos administration presses ahead with its “Pambansang Pabahay Para sa Pilipino Program (4PH),” which targets the construction of one million homes annually.

SHDA, the Philippines’ largest housing industry association, has pledged to deliver a portion of the 250,000 units committed by private developers to the program.
