Today, 2.8 billion people lack an adequate place to call home.
Housing is more than shelter — it’s the foundation for stability, dignity, and opportunity. Without it, everything else falls apart. That’s why solving the global housing crisis is not just a social imperative — it’s one of the most urgent challenges of our time.
Yet despite its importance, solutions that truly move the needle remain elusive. Conventional approaches have failed to address the structural inequities that keep housing security out of reach for billions.
CivicFirst was founded to change this.
We're building an equitable housing system that serves all people equally by creating pathways to homeownership that are accessible to everyone. Our integrated solutions leverage industrialised production methods while delivering impact with a focus on economic empowerment, climate resilience, social infrastructure, and sustainable governance—making secure, stable housing a catalyst for lasting systemic change in any location.
As we expand our work across geographies where housing deficits are most acute, we invite you to join us in this vital mission.
Whether through partnership or collaboration, together we can transform housing and create a future where everyone has access to the dignity and security of a place to call home.
