Somehow I Feel Calmer and I Can Move On
This article analyses a range of coping strategies that women have developed to adapt to the contingencies of day-to-day life in housing exclusion, that is to say, living in inadequate and/or insecure housing. Considering the exploratory nature of this study and a focus on lived experiences of women facing housing exclusion, a qualitative approach was used. Interviews with 22 women experiencing housing exclusion were conducted in five cities thro…
Power Dynamics and Research Ethics in Sensitive Research
Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork among people experiencing homelessness in Croatia, this article explores power dynamics between researchers and participants in sensitive research. This study shows that these power dynamics are continually shifting depending on researcher positionalities and field sites (shelter facility vs public spaces). In addition, this becomes more complex in interdisciplinary teams where members within an internal team pow…
From Free to Forced - Exploring Mobility among People Experiencing Homelessness
For a long time, it was thought that the mobility of homeless people could be typically described as free and unrestricted.More recently, this mobility assumption has been challenged to the extent that it has been claimed that is not only restricted, but completely forced.Clearly, the mobility paradigm is inadequate to describe the movements of homeless people who are often subject to exclusion, relocation, confinement, and coercion.This is parti…
Pathways to Homelessness and Social Exclusion
This new study explores pathways into homelessness and identifies 'turning points' among persons currently experiencing rooflessness. Besides their explanations, this research also holistically examines individual biographies to see how other issues have permeated their lives. Although the reasons people described for becoming homeless were complex and multi-layered, the study identifies six pathways into homelessness, as well as some turning poi…
Leisure time
Previous research suggested that women and men experience their leisure time differently (i.e. time not committed to the labour force, domestic caregiving, or personal care). In relation to quantitative differences, studies worldwide have confirmed that a gender gap in leisure time use exists even though both women’s and men’s lives may be enriched through opportunity for leisure. In this article, we examine the organisation of time in the domain…

THE QUALITY OF HOMELESSNESS SERVICES: AN OVERVIEW OF THE CURRENT SITUATION AND CHALLENGES IN CROATIA Although homelessness is a multifaceted phenomenon that has aroused interest in the Croatian scientific community over the last decade, the quality of homelessness services has not been explored so far. Based on a qualitative research that included key participants in the homelessness sector, this theme is problematized through various aspects of …
If You Can Turn to God, You Can Turn to Anyone
Recent empirical studies demonstrate that faith is a resource that can contribute to personal resilience in difficult life events. Since few studies have focused on how women draw on their faith to cope with homelessness and associated life stressors, this study is an attempt to fill this gap. By examining women’s accounts of experience with homelessness and homeless shelters in Croatia, we explore the role of faith in their lives. Using qualitat…
Making Ends Meet. How Roma Families Living in Poverty Cope
Literature on how Roma families cope with precarious living conditions and social exclusion remains very limited. Out of all the national minorities and ethnic groups in Croatia, the Roma undoubtedly have the most difficult social position characterised by a high degree of poverty and social exclusion. Based on recent fieldwork, the aim of this article is to explore the coping strategies different Roma populations in Croatia employ to meet their …
The Meanings and Experiences of Domestic Labour among Rural Women in Croatia
The Meanings and Experiences of Domestic Labour among Rural Women in Croatia Worldwide research has shown that women tend to devote a disproportionate amount of time to domestic labour that can be a barrier to gender equality and women's empowerment. The aim of this study is to investigate the extent to which women's role in unpaid domestic labour has an effect on their well-being and whether this presents a barrier to their empowerment or their …
Women's Contribution to Rural Development in Croatia
Women's Contribution to Rural Development in Croatia: Roles, Participation and Obstacles Unequal access to formal employment, decision-making power and social prestige can lead to vulnerabilities and social exclusion especially in rural areas. Feminist researchers and advocates for women assert that the preservation of agriculture, family farming and diverse rural culture in particular depend on the empowerment and participation of women (Hoff 19…
