PATHWAYS TO INCLUSIVE, AFFORDABLE, AND SUSTAINABLE HOUSING

CO-FUNDED BY
THE EUROPEAN UNION

Prototypes for addressing the housing-energy-nexus. PREFIGURE explores local, market and social innovation schemes that combat housing inequalities and energy poverty in Europe.

With structural dynamics underpinning social and spatial inequalities, the project seeks to co-create new pathways to affordable and energy-efficient housing and to support policy in this key area.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

UNLOCKING ALTERNATIVE PATHWAYS

  • The housing/energy nexus: exploring the ways in which energy poverty and housing inequalities intersect and inform just housing and energy policies.
  • A catalogue of prototypes of change: upscaling local initiatives of policy, market and social innovation.
  • Transformative methods for knowledge co-creation, networking and dissemination using corner.
