Ensuring living condition for ageing population by public–private partnership (PPP)

Reference
Lack of financial resources has become one of the main issues in fulfilling social and physical needs in urban development. The declining levels of public resources make the collaboration between public and private investors necessary. When facing the challenges of an ageing population, shared investment may contribute to the appropriate development of sheltered housing. This paper presents practice of PPP implementation in Ljubljana, Slovenia, where local authority with the collaboration of private partners ensured more than 400 sheltered apartments were built in the last years. Examples show the extension of the idea from the 70s onwards in finding new models of housing for the aging population.
