"A new social contract and new financing model is needed to address climate and housing crisis" Maimunah Mohd Sharif Strong message! #housing2030 gives policy makers the tools to do this.

'#Housing2030: Effective policies for #affordablehousing in the UNECE region' proves that policymakers are not helpless against the #housingcrisis. A powerful report by Housing Europe, @UNECEHLM & UN-Habitat - housing2030.org Press release📢 bit.ly/3Fqgavm

Very interesting and timely! Some takeaway points: 👉 Conversion programmes need to be part of overall strategies to create adequate housing (this has implication for quality standards!) 👉 A wide network of stakeholders is crucial 👉 Users' needs and expectations are central

Hear directly from the winners of the World Habitat Award 2020, their communities, as well as the final judges! Great video sharing knowledge about solutions to urgent housing issues!

Are you interested in knowing more about how housing is central to transforming cities for a better future? Check out the events organised by our partners at #WUF11

It was great to moderate the MC2CM session of WUF11 on global solutions to urban governance of migration. Big thank you to Ms Şahin, Mayor of Gaziantep, Mr Sánchez, Mayor of Surquillo, Ms Francis - ICMPD and Ms Gafsia - UN-Habitat Tunisia for the excellent discussion!

💻 And we're off! 🗣️ Christophe Robert starts the launch of FEANTSA & Abbé Pierre's 7th Overview of Housing Exclusion in Europe, situating us in the current context & developments of homelessness. #HousingExclusion2022 Stay tuned for important findings on evictions in Europe ⬇️

For my final The Guardian byline - we analysed hundreds of court docs where landlords were taken to court. Quick 🧵on the wildest one: in a student flat after a burglary occurred, the landlord neglected to change the locks. The burglar was later found to be LIVING in the attic

"🇪🇺 is doing more but there is a huge gap in investment in #affordablehousing because housing has become not a right but an economic speculative issue where you can earn a lot of money & get a guarantee that your 💷 will not be taken by inflation & this creates a lot of tension."

Italy: in 2022, one person in situation of homelessness has died every day. Already 289 people. It is not acceptable. We need a national conversation (and in Rome and Milan a local one) and a strategy.

Submission for inputs for the UN Secretary General's report on inclusive policies and programmes to address homelessness is open. More info on the UN-Habitat Web page!

Congratulation once again to Homes for Good for demonstrating what we truly mean with housing as a shared responsibility. It was an honour to celebrate our inspiring work together with World Habitat !
