Abstract
We describe the structure of regular codimension 
$1$ foliations with numerically projectively flat tangent bundle on complex projective manifolds of dimension at least 
$4$. Along the way, we prove that either the normal bundle of a regular codimension 
$1$ foliation is pseudo-effective, or its conormal bundle is nef.
