To #EndHomelessness, continuously improving national strategies with input from local authorities & people with lived experiences is key. Let's unite for lasting solutions rooted in human rights, prevention, & evidence-based practices.

Proud to unveil the #UNSG report, by @UNHABITAT with support from @UNDESA, on the global mission to address #homelessness.
From partnerships to policies, we need a collective effort to ensure #HousingForAll, breaking cycles of poverty & exclusion.

A report found that 11% of California State University students experienced homelessness during their time in college. A new bill would provide direct cash to the most vulnerable students to keep their dreams afloat. sanjosespotlight.com/santa-c…

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.

"🇪🇺 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."

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
Launching now our new @SolutionHousing joint paper @Abbe_Pierre @FEANTSA @COEbanknews on "Upcycling buildings" - converting non-residential buildings into permanent housing for those in need.
