#Housing is a human right: How Finland is eradicating homelessness

CBCHousing is a human right: How Finland is eradicating homelessness | CBC RadioAs part of The Sunday Edition's continuing coverage of homelessness in Canada, Michael speaks with Juha Kaakinen, the architect of Finland's national Housing First program. Its premise could hardly be simpler: If the problem is that people don't have homes, the solution is to give them homes. Period. There have been naysayers, of course, but in Finland, at least, it's been a spectacular success. And the model is catching on in municipalities across Europe, Asia and North America.

Bezahlbarer #Wohnraum – Ohne Ideologie, mit Lösungen! 🏠

Bezahlbarer Wohnraum ist ein wachsendes Problem. Statt ideologischer Maßnahmen wie der Mietpreisbremse setzen wir auf echte Lösungen!

✅ Moderner, sozialer Wohnungsbau statt immer neuer Regulierungen
✅ Gezielte Unterstützung der Kommunen für mehr Neubauten
✅ Housing-First-Konzepte für diejenigen, die es am dringendsten brauchen

ℹ️ Der Nationale #Aktionsplan gegen #Wohnungslosigkeit bündelt Maßnahmen, von denen einige präventiv wirken und darauf zielen, Wohnungsverlust zu verhindern (z.B. sozialer #Wohnungsbau und das #Wohngeld für Menschen mit geringem Einkommen). Andere Maßnahmen sollen die Situation für Betroffene möglichst schnell und spürbar verbessern. Dazu zählt u.a. die Schaffung von #Qualitätsstandards für Notunterkünfte und die Förderung von #HousingFirst-Ansätzen. Mehr erfahren 👉 bmwsb.bund.de/Webs/BMWSB/DE/th (4/4)

why-not @Heike

um #housingfirst, das vom Mags supportet wird, aber ohentsprechenden Wohnraum natürlich nichts wird.
Auch Sozialwohnungen werden Thema sein.
Zum Thema Entwicklung einer Selbstvertretung Armutsbetroffener gehen die Meinungen auseinander. Das Mags will Gelder dafür an die Kommunen geben. Wir sind davon überzeugt: das Geld versandet, die Kommunen wollen mitreden. Wir haben den Vorschlag zurückgewiesen. Wir wollen das Geld selbst,
