Policy recommendations (WP7 & 8)


This set of policy recommendations and the accompanying policy brief distil what HousInC’s research means for actually changing housing systems in Athens, Barcelona and Glasgow – and beyond. Building on the practices and proposals of housing movements, they argue for a shift from short-term, crisis-driven measures towards structural housing security, the rebuilding of public and non-market housing capacity, tighter regulation of financial and corporate actors, and more democratic, co-produced forms of governance. Together, the documents set out strategic goals and concrete policy domains – from tenure security, rent regulation and social/cooperative housing, to anti-discrimination, care-based support and participatory decision-making – and invite policymakers, movements and institutions to treat the right to housing as a social, ecological and collective right that can be realised in practice.
