    Resilient communities in empty buildings

    Temporary use of empty buildings to host homeless people and build resilient communities

    Until now, we tested our model in 3 municipalities in Brussels: Ixelles (1050), Evere (1140) and Molenbeek (1080). However we believe that our model can be replicated not only all over Brussels but also in all cities that have vacant social housing in Europe, in order to end homelessness. For that reason, we work in close partnership with social housing companies in order to study our model, create KPI, prove our model's efficiency as well as spread the idea throughout Brussels first, then Belgium, then Europe!, Belgium
