With different approaches adapted to different situations, innovative projects can bring solutions addressing housing exclusion. The seven initiatives explored in this factsheet have demonstrated what can come out of creative and engaging projects to solve the lack of affordable housing. All of them are, at least partly, replicable in other countries and cities. By bundling the different innovative solutions, we intend to inspire those who aim to tackle housing exclusion, and to engage practitioners in discussion and innovative projects to fix this issue. Housing exclusion is growing in Europe, and almost all member states see an increase in homelessness. Yet housing is a right: it affects every aspect of a person’s life. The Housing Solutions Platform (HSP) is new expertise- and practice-driven initiative to identify, debate and promote innovative solutions for affordable housing in Europe.
