ROOF

Programme 2014 - 2020 URBACT III

Date of latest update: 2025-01-21

Description

Description (EN):

The ROOF project aims to eradicate homelessness through innovative housing solutions at city level. ROOF will exchange knowledge on how to (1) gather accurate data and (2) make the conceptual shift from the symptomatic management to the actual ending of homelessness, with Housing First and Housing Led as guidance model. ROOF will guide the partner cities towards integrated local action plans linked to the long term strategic goal of Functional Zero (no structural homelessness).

Achievements (EN):

We are ROOF, an URBACT Action Planning Network on ending homelessness through housing solutions. We are a network of 9 European cities (Braga (PT), Ghent (BE – Lead Partner), Glasgow (UK), Liège (BE), Odense (DK), Poznan (PL), Thessaloniki (EL), Timișoara (RO), Toulouse Métropole (FR)). For 2 years we have been exchanging knowledge and good practices and organising trainings on what is Housing First, what is ETHOS Light, data collection, how do you make the shift…. We also have been drafting local action plans to end homelessness by making the shift from shelter to Housing First and via data collection. We believe that change is key, change the mindset and get all levels on the same page. Knowledge is important and effecting change is just as essential. Whether through engaging people or advocating to change policy. Advocacy and storytelling are key in that. We have been aiming to have changed more minds towards data collection and starting or upscaling Housing First/Led and made progress in the local, national and European homelessness and housing policies by the end of our project.
