Mission & Interests
Goals: Die Wohnungsfrage ist eine der größten sozialen Herausforderungen in Europa. Einkommensschwache Gruppen, insbesondere junge Menschen und Familien sowie verwundbare und marginalisierte Gruppen können sich häufig keinen oder keinen geeigneten Wohnraum mehr leisten. Räumungen auf die Straße und Perspektivlosigkeit nehmen europaweit zu. Gemeinschaftlich getragene, nicht-gewinn-ortientierte Häuser beenden Immobilienspekulation und Profit aus Wohnen, indem sie Immobilen kaufen und in das gemeinschaftliche Eigentum ihrer Bewohner:innen zum dauerhaft sozialen, nachhaltigen, inklusivem, flexiblen und an diverse Lebensphasen angepaßten, demokratisch-gemeinschaftlichen Wohnen, Arbeiten und Engagement übertragen. Im Zusammenspiel mit ihren Netzwerken sichern sie ihre Häuser dauerhaft gegen den Verkauf und gegen Profit ab. Hausprojekte und Netzwerke in der EU haben nun ein Europäisches Netzwerk zum solidarischen horizontalen Wissens- und Finanztransfer zur Gründung neuer Häuser gebildet.

Activities
Main EU Legislative Proposals: The housing issue is one of Europe's biggest social challenges and affects many Europeans personally. Good, safe housing in a social environment has a major influence on health, the feeling and planning of life, the economy, creativity and social cohesion.
In Europe, low-income groups are often no longer able to afford suitable housing. Evictions onto the streets and a lack of prospects are increasing across Europe. Speculation and profit are causing prices and rents to skyrocket.
Community led, non-profit-oriented houses put an end to property speculation and profit from housing by buying properties and transferring them into the joint ownership of their residents for long-term social, community led living and developing innovative, flexible forms of society and housing. Together with their networks, they secure their houses permanently against sale and profit.
Since 1983, they have built up many community led houses under their own steam, and they provide solidarity-based horizontal transfer of knowledge, experience and finance for new groups and houses and organize their horizontal network in Europe.
We suggest
• Within the framework of HORIZON EUROPE: Investigation and comparison of the developments and status quo of the real estate and housing markets in the EU, their legal framework, state subsidies, best practices, legal and social forms as well as initiatives and NGOs that provide space for long-term, public welfare-oriented, affordable, high-quality, sustainable, democratic, inclusive, self-determined living, working and engagement.
• Within the framework of HORIZON EUROPE: Development of strategies to transfer good practices to EU member states to tackle the European housing crisis.
• Support for government and social initiatives through
◦ Transfer of knowledge and experience within the framework of ERASMUS+
◦ Development and proposal of suitable framework conditions and support
◦ Favourable loans and company investments, e.g. via the EIB etc.
