Living together in old age
In the Netherlands, as in many European countries, housing has become increasingly commodified, and there are growing disparities amongst the housing situations of different generations. While older people tend to live in spacious homes, young people and families increasingly struggle to find a suitable dwelling. Furthermore, since 2012, the national government has adopted an ‘ageing in place’ approach, encouraging older people to stay in their h…

Discovering the Significance of Housing Neighbourhoods by Assessing Their Attributes With a Digital Tool
Much of the building stock subjected to the upcoming European Renovation Wave is neither listed as heritage nor considered valuable architecture. This also applies to Dutch housing built between 1965 and 1985, more than 30% of the Dutch housing stock, for which there is no consensus on their cultural significance. Their successful renovation process requires broad support. What attributes do citizens consider significant in their neighbourhood? H…
The potential of collaborative housing to tackle the social deficit of housing
In recent decades, various programs have been developed as part of Chile’s housing policies to respond to the housing deficit. Most policies have so far focused on addressing the quantitative, qualitative, and urban deficits, neglecting the social dimension of housing. At the same time, the concept of collaborative housing has been referred to as a possible alternative to respond to these social challenges by fostering social cohesion, collaborat…

In the last century, the concept of what can be heritage has expanded in definition, opening to everyday architecture and living environments. More recently, the group of stakeholders to be involved in heritage assessment and management has slowly grown, with authorities acknowledging that heritage significance lies in the representation and identification for people and that people could help define it. Studying the significance of everyday resi…
A Framework for Co-Design Processes and Visual Collaborative Methods
With the urgency to adapt cities to social and ecological pressures, co-design has become essential to legitimise transformations by involving citizens and other stakeholders in their design processes. Public spaces remain at the heart of this transformation due to their accessibility for citizens and capacity to accommodate urban functions. However, urban landscape design is a complex task for people who are not used to it. Visual collaborative …
Between Self-organization and Formal Participation
To a large extent, established formal participation schemes fail to deliver on their promise of transferring substantial power to tenants, while self-organized housing remains a niche for those who have a strong inclination and ample resources. Given the rise of renting in Europe, and the intensifying housing crisis, increasing tenants' ontological security by allowing them meaningful influence is urgent and important. Self-management, where tena…
Affordability through design
Against the background of the current housing affordability crisis, a new wave of ‘collaborative housing’ (CH) is developing in many European cities. In this paper, CH refers to housing projects where residents choose to share certain spaces and are involved in the design phase. While many authors point to the alleged economic benefits of living in CH, the (collaborative) design dimension is rarely mentioned in relation to affordability. This pap…

Collaborative Housing in Europe
International audience
Collaborative housing and housing providers
Many European countries are experiencing a recent (re)emergence of collaborative housing, such as co-housing, housing co-operatives and other forms of collective self-organised housing. One of the less studied aspects of these housing forms is the relationship between users (i.e. residents) and institutional actors and, in particular, established housing providers. This paper proposes a conceptual framework that helps expand the knowledge on the …
An exploration of concepts and polices on ‘affordable housing’ in England, Italy, Poland and The Netherlands
The term ‘affordable housing’ has been rapidly gaining currency over the last decade across Europe, both in policy and research circles. While it is often used as a synonym or close relative of the term ‘social housing’, more recently it is finding its own definition and policy instruments in specific cities and countries. However, boundaries between both concepts remain unclear. To shed light on recent developments of each of these terms, this p…
Social Housing Organisations in England and The Netherlands
Rapid and deep changes in society, the economy and policy over the last decades are having an increasing impact on the delivery of social housing in North Western Europe. These changes are transforming the way in which social housing providers perform their task and are reshaping their relationships with the State, communities and with other market actors. The combination of continued State withdrawal from service provision, the deep and persiste…
Exploring the Meaning of Hybridity and Social Enterprise in Housing Organisations
While social housing has long been delivered through mixed economy mechanisms, there has been little focus in housing studies on what this means for housing organisations. This paper reviews recent international work applying concepts of social enterprise and hybridity to illuminate organisational behaviour. It addresses critiques of the explanatory value of these concepts by exploring their underlying meanings and their application to diverse ca…
Conceptualising Social Enterprise in Housing Organisations
Recent changes in the provision, funding and management of social housing in Europe have led to the emergence of new types of providers. While some of them can be portrayed with traditional ‘state’, ‘market’ or ‘civil society’ labels, many correspond to hybrid organisational forms, encompassing characteristics of all three in varying combinations. Nonetheless, evidence suggests that there is a ‘common thread’ linking these organisations together,…
A Policy Network Perspective on Social Housing Provision in the European Union
This article draws on network theory to examine the evolution of the network of European social housing providers (CECODHAS) in the context of a rapidly changing policy environment. In order to do so, it outlines the objectives and structure of the network and looks at the management mechanisms that it has had to put in place to adjust to new demands from its environment – notably, European laws and directives impacting on the delivery of social …
