Abstract
Housing in Iraq became intractable problem, due to fragmental approach in treating and solutions. Mobilizing all abilities within collective frameworks is required; such as partnership approach. Research problem is the absence of clear vision for integration type between housing sectors that cause real difficulties of housing provision. Research aims to offer flexible formula integrating potential of various sectors in the framework of a comprehensive housing strategy. Hypothesis is: effective partnership is possible in light of the integration public sector as activating element with private sector as active element to produce driving force for housing process. It has reviewed most of concepts, patterns and formats of partnerships, in light of some developing countries experiences. There is no crystallized effective partnership formula in Iraq. Research proposed formula based on complementary integration of private sector, and (ngo), and users, under the roof of (public sector). This formula was tested in light of inquiry of five categories of those concerned with housing affairs. Results were often compatible with basic joints of the formula and relatively compliant with its mechanism details. Conclusion: partnership is possible in light of individual potentialities, activated by non-conventional means with legislative reforms.
