This book provides a unique win-win arrangement between a housing cooperative and a private developer for housing development using a case of a cooperative named ‘semy tekes’ who managed to develop a B+G+5 building located in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. I believe the lesson learnt will be of great importance in the global or national level efforts to address urban housing challenges for developing country cities where government has resource limitation but interested in the redevelopment of decaying inner-city areas addressing housing challenge along with.
