International cooperation in Africa in the field of housing, physical planning and building continued to be active in 1962 both at the regional and country levels. Activities at the regional level were concentrated on studies in building techniques, self-help housing and urbanization with consistent efforts in pursuance of the "Long-range Programmes of concerted International Action in the Fields of Community Development, Low Cost Housing and related Community Facilities, and Industrialization" adopted by the Economic and Social Council at its 13th session. Technical services were also provided to governments in varied fields, particularly in assisting in specific demonstration projects, physical planning and training. The present report attempts to give a brief account of principal activities undertaken during the previous year.
