To kick off the European week of cities and regions, FEANTSA launched the cities Toolkit for Ending Homelessness on October 8, 2018. The toolkit provides cities, local and municipal authorities with a framework to make a meaningful impact in the fight to reduce and end homelessness in Europe by 2030. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), signed and endorsed by each EU Member State, has called for an end to poverty, specifically extreme poverty, and to guarantee access to adequate housing for all by 2030. In the years ahead, there is need to equip cities with support and resources needed to reverse these develops and to ultimately reduce and end homelessness in Europe. The toolkit provides a series of policy initiatives cities should undertake to end homelessness: better data collection, increasing access to affordable housing, delivering integrated services and investing in prevention.
