Co-operate! How to help people excluded from decent housing

The project was undertaken as part of the Trans-national Exchange Programme and involved a consortium of 38 institutions, including 7 research institutes (InWIS, Bochum; PSPC, Brussels; OTB, Delft; URS, Prague; IRM, Cracow; SRZ Vienna and CHP, York) and 31 agencies across seven countries - Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland and the UK. All teams have explored inter-agency working in at least one city in their respective countries: Vienna, Brussels, Cracow/Poznan, Duisburg/ Hanover, Rotterdam, Brno and Leeds.

The final report - Co-operate! How to help people excluded from decent housing - provides seventeen examples of good practice including interventions aimed at: preventing housing loss; provision of permanent housing; provision of support to maintain accommodation and the provision of information and advice.
