Housing Europe is the European Federation of Public, Cooperative, and Social Housing, established in 1988. It comprises 45 national and regional federations, along with 16 partner organizations, collectively managing around 25 million homes, which represents approximately 11% of the housing stock in Europe. The federation's mission is to ensure access to decent and affordable housing for all within sustainable communities. Beyond housing, its members provide various services, including domiciliary care, community centers, and urban development initiatives, contributing to the overall well-being of their communities. Housing Europe also runs the Housing Europe Observatory, which identifies research needs and analyzes trends in housing at a European level. The organization engages in advocacy for energy efficiency and social inclusion to promote a stable housing market throughout the continent.
