Änderungen an „Strengthen partnerships between local authorities, universities, and social enterprises“

What is the problem?

Students and young people face growing housing insecurity, particularly in cities where tourism or market speculation inflates rents. Public institutions often lack affordable accommodation options.

What should be done?

Foster partnerships between municipalities, universities, and social enterprises to develop sustainable, affordable student residences.

Who should act?

Local governments, universities, and social economy actors, with potential support from EU innovation and social investment funds.

What impact will it have?

It will relieve housing pressure in university cities, provide stable options for students and low-income residents, and strengthen ties between education, community, and sustainable urban development.
