[...] • VEKOP: we partner with the Municipality of Újpest to improve urban dwellers’ living conditions and promote social integration through social work and events held at a local community center. [...] We launched our solidarity housing agency program in collaboration with the Utcáról Lakásba! (“From the Street to Homes!”) association. [...] Advocacy work Through our research, policy proposals and campaigns, we urge the Hungarian government, local municipalities and other stakeholders to take concrete steps to tackle housing poverty.
