What is a Local Shelter Plan (LSP)?
It is a document prepared by LGU which comprises of
• Analysis of the local housing situation
• housing problems,

• upgrading and future housing needs,

• household’s affordability

• local resources such as land, basic services

• finance),

• Available resources vis-à-vis resource requirements and

• Shelter strategies and implementation plan to address the
housing needs identified.
•
Background
 The LSP utilizes the UN Shelter Method, a technique developed by the
United Nations Centre for Human Settlements or the UNCHS (now UN
HABITAT) in collaboration with the Government of Finland in the late
1980s;

 HUDCC adopted the planning technique through the release of the

Guidelines for the Preparation of Local Shelter Plans in June 1994;

 Through the assistance of the UN Habitat, the HUDCC was able to prepare
an enhanced LSP Guide/Manual that incorporates Climate Change
Adaptation and Sustainable Urban Development Strategies

 The HUDCC has embarked on a systematic training of LGUs in Local

Shelter Planning since 2012 and has reached a total of 1,297 LGUs out of
its 1,386 target. There are a total of 1,632 LGUs in the Philippines
