Today, the @EU_EESC has adopted an opinion on #socialhousing in the EU and we are launching the 2nd phase of the #AffordableHousingInitiative programme Could you imagine this 3-4 years ago? @HousingEurope’s President highlights the increased awareness on a severe crisis.
Key words from one of the biggest defenders of #affordablehousing at the European Parliament: “We should prioritise the #socialhousing districts as soon as possible, with the political momentum we have, we definitely cannot miss this opportunity,” MEP @kimvsparrentak underlines.
MEP @mrossemp reminds the EU can invest, regulate and encourage Member States to put together common rules for better housing, the time has begun and let’s end this term at least with solutions to the #housingcrisis.
Big day for the #AffordableHousingInitiative European Partnership - phase II of the Accelerator Programme is ON!
“Let today serve as a platform for partnerships & collective action, let’s shape a future with affordable, sustainable & dignified action”, @EU_EESC President says.
The recording and the slides of our 6th financial webinar are now available: Sustainable Investment and Innovative Renovation
We learned project design for success, delved into social innovation in project financing & understood the Invest EU tool.
