Abstract
Governments in the third world have been content with improving the built environment by purely technical methods primarily aimed at securing a high volume of construction without particular regard to cultural and social factors. Sustainable Development can thus be defined as the evolving or transformation of the environment in a way that promotes a healthy and better way of life, both socially and economically, while the environment is still protected and nurtured, and in this process, not compromising the quality of life for future generations. This paper thus employs a critical literature review on the current trend on sustainability and mass housing in order to seek the possibility on how mass housing could help in addressing some of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals by the United Nations. There are various social and environmental factors that greatly influence sustainability. Sustainability is a concept which brings together a housing environment which solves most of the problems faced by mass housing developments. In conclusion, this paper proposed a conceptual framework to enhance the process of achieving sustainable development goals using mass housing as a benchmark
