Rising rents, a shortage of affordable housing and long waiting lists make it increasingly difficult to find a home. According to the initiators, this combination is pushing more and more people towards homelessness.
On October 17, the Day of Resistance against Poverty and Social Exclusion, the issue was already raised with a campaign on Stationsplein. “We then gave the floor to people who are confronted with exclusion on a daily basis. Such actions are necessary, but do not solve the structural problem,” the organizers say.
