INTRODUCTION
 

  • HOUSING  RIGHT  and  social  services :   Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.   Universal Declaration of Human Rights  Art. 25
     

  • 700.000  Homeless in  Europa  (2022 Feantsa  - FAP)   but this number of invisible or so  much visible homeless ... is destined to grow.

    The slogan today (as every 10  years...) repeating "end of homelessness in the next 10 years" 2030!.
    but who ever launches these slogans knows very well that it is not possible to realise a minimum  progress in this fight against homelessness and poverty if don't take remedial action planning a real  political and economic - social - cultural investment.

    Today  the social  phenomenon of  homelessness are a symptomatic expression of a deepest and  complex malaise of the society and the structure that is given. In the past century and before , the homeless were considered poor wretches than individually consequence of their individual problems and for this discharged to the care of assistance organizations.

    According to the collective 'Les Morts de la rue' : in 2021 at least 706 people died on the street in France ", (and this is non-exhaustive number) ....  and sure this number  have grown by far in recent years ..
    How many in 27 European Countries dead yeach year?... what  about  prevention?...   about investment  and  accessibility ?....
    How  many  of  these invisible or so all too visible ....  are the  victims of poverty  and  illness?... of injustice?... of stigmatization?...  shamefully visible for our wellbeing society?...
