he CLIFF is a global facility that mobilizes various resources from different actors that bridge the funding gap to support communityled upgrading and housing projects for the poor. Its goal is to reduce poverty by increasing the access of slum dwellers to public, private and civil society sector resources for housing and basic services delivery. CLIFF is now in its second phase with a purpose to enable organizations of the urban poor to access greater public, private and civil society sector resources to deliver adequate and sustainable housing and basic services for slum dwellers through innovative practice and influence on policy. Support and funding for CLIFF come from the UK Department for International Development (DFID) and the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), channeled through and managed by Homeless International (HI) - a UK-based NGO. For the second phase, CLIFF intends to expand its reach to new areas and with new implementing partners to scale-up the delivery of adequate and sustainable housing and basic services for slum dwellers. From the first three (3) implementing partners, namely the Indian Alliance (SPARC, National Slum Dwellers Federation, Nirman), the Kenyan Alliance (AMT/ Pamoja/ Muungano Wa Wanavijiji), and the Philippine Alliance [Homeless Peoples Federation Philippines, Inc. (HPFPI) and Philippine Ac-

tion for Community-led Shelter Initiatives, Inc. (PACSII)], CLIFF now includes Lumanti for Nepal and the National Housing Cooperative Union (NACHU) for Kenya. The Philippine Alliance has been introduced to HI and CLIFF through the support and endorsement of the Slum / Shack Dwellers International Inc (SDI). CLIFF welcomed the Philippine Alliance as an implementing partner in 2007, having passed the requirements and criteria set.

OBJECTIVES (cont) ii. Affordable financial packages

LIFF Philippines started in Iloilo City in 2007 to: a) develop a citywide finance facility that invests in community driven and participatory processes in housing provision; and b) build the capacities of housing participants (end-users) through their extensive involvement in all project stages, such as project development and planning, housing design, procurement and construction management. The Iloilo project involves the recycling of CLIFF capital through repayment of affordable housing loans to support community-driven de-

velopment of a total of 193 shell housing units. The 193 starter housing units are divided into 2 projects: the 21 unit KABALAKA Housing Demonstration and the 172 unit Community-Managed Resettlement Housing on Iloilo City San Isidro Relocation site. Contributing to the gains and learning in the Iloilo project is coimplementation by the Iloilo City Urban Poor Network (ICUPN), the city-wide urban poor network that has been collaborating with the HPFPI and the City on relocation and housing as early as 2005.
