Sheikh Zayed Housing Programme

At the federal level, Sheikh Zayed Housing Programme (SZHP), established in 1999, provides interest-free loans repayable over a 25-year period to citizens with low incomes.

Grants and non-reimbursable assistance are dispensed to the poorest segments of society. SZHP gives priority to orphans, widows, aged people and people with special needs.

In 2020, Sheikh Zayed Housing Programme was merged with Ministry of Energy & Infrastructure.
