Beschreibung

The loan will finance social housing projects (including homes for refugees) in the German federal state of Lower Saxony.

Ziele

The operation concerns the financing of Lower Saxony's social housing programmes, comprising the construction of new units and the comprehensive retrofitting of designated units (e.g. energy efficiency measures, improved accessibility for disabled persons) in the years 2015-2019. Most of the units will be used to provide temporary accommodation to refugees/asylum seekers recently arrived in the region before being reverted into social housing for the wider population. The individual social housing investments will form part of specific local integrated urban development plans or designated urban renewal areas, which satisfies the EIB's eligibility criteria for urban renewal and sustainable communities.
