Climate Action
An organisation which provides good quality affordable housing to those on low incomes in Scotland and a Senegal-based project which has helped 20,000 people settle in safe homes have been announced as the 2023 #WorldHabitatAwards GOLD winners. For more details of the projects and to see the full list of 2023 winners click here.
Elsewhere, in the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) region inadequate policies or laws to prevent or end homelessness exist and there is not enough evidence to prove how a shift could work in this region. To help fill the evidence gap World Habitat have commissioned The Budapest Institute and Metropolitan Research Institute to complete a feasibility study into housing-led approaches.
