FEANTSA, the European Federation of National Organisations Working with the Homeless, is a network organisation dedicated to addressing homelessness across Europe. Based in Brussels, it serves as an umbrella network for over 110 member organisations from 28 different countries. FEANTSA's primary focus is on the structural causes of homelessness, particularly housing issues, and it works to promote the rights of homeless individuals, including the right to housing. FEANTSA engages in various activities to achieve its goals, including advocacy among EU institutions, research dissemination, and raising awareness among professionals, policymakers, media, and citizens. The organisation collaborates with its members to understand homelessness as a situation that deprives individuals of fundamental rights, emphasizing that all rights are interdependent and indivisible. Key initiatives include contributing to EU policy discussions, such as the European Pillar of Social Rights, and participating in the European Semester process to address poverty, inequality, and social exclusion. FEANTSA also conducts and supports transnational research through the European Observatory on Homelessness, aiming to provide comprehensive insights into homelessness and housing exclusion across Europe. By working together with its members and EU institutions, FEANTSA strives to end homelessness in Europe.
