ABSTRACT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Public Private mass housing schemes referred to as PPP, generally represent a wide range of institutional arrangements between public and private sectors in sharing responsibilities, benefits and risks in housing, infrastructure and service provision. These housing delivery partnerships are effective strategy in the provision of adequate housing, not only in developed countries, but also developing countries. Thus, this study assessed housing adequacy in the implemented PPP mass housing schemes across 22 districts of phases 2 and 3 of FCT Abuja, Nigeria. The study established that households perceived their residential environment as being adequate with a housing adequacy index of 60.72. A further analysis on each component of housing adequacy shows Legal Security of Tenure has the highest adequacy index of 74.49. While Design of residence in relation to local residents\u2019 natural lifestyle has the lowest adequacy index of 42.95 thus, perceived as being inadequate. Therefore, end users\u2019 participation in the design and construction process is low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
