The ENHR Conference 2024, themed "Making Housing Systems Work: Evidence and Solutions," aims to tackle pressing housing issues across European nations. The focus is on practical solutions rather than merely discussing the challenges, with key topics including Dutch housing policy and innovative housing initiatives like cooperatives. Participants will engage in discussions surrounding affordability, energy transitions, and industrialized home production as viable solutions. A significant aspect of the conference will include a debate on the role of housing researchers, contemplating whether they should act as activists or maintain an independent stance to provide valuable insights into the housing system. The event will feature a variety of formats, including plenaries, workshops, and field trips, designed to foster collaboration and knowledge-sharing among housing researchers and specialists. Organized by the European Network for Housing Research (ENHR), the conference promises to be a comprehensive platform for addressing critical housing challenges in Europe.
