International study visits are carried out each year to the World Habitat Award-winning projects in order to encourage the dissemination of innovative housing practice around the world and to facilitate the transfer of knowledge and experience.
Bursaries are made available by BSHF, enabling participants from a range of countries to attend.
The purpose of the visits is to provide a practical, in-depth understanding of the technical, social and financial aspects of each award-winning programme. Intensive site visits form a major part of the study visit, providing an opportunity for participants to meet with residents and others responsible for the programme's success.
