Country profile Romania - The housing need in Romania

22 Nov 2023

Country profile Romania The housing need in Romania Romania has the highest rate of housing deprivation among all countries in the European Union, according to a statement made on behalf of the Romanian government to the United Nations. [...] Poor and marginalized groups, in both urban and rural areas, face serious challenges in the housing sector, including low quality housing, inadequate infrastructure, and lack of tenure security, particularly in the case of informal settlements. [...] Official data showed that 36% of the Romania population is at risk of poverty and social exclusion and three in 10 Romanians are affected by housing issues such as overcrowding or lack of adequate sanitary facilities. [...] Advocacy and awareness raising Habitat Romania serves as a voice for people in need of decent homes by working to change laws and shape policies that affect access to housing. [...] Advocating for sustainable and inclusive policies and systems that promote access to safe and affordable housing is key to achieving Habitat’s vision of a world where everyone has a decent place to live.
