Europe’s housing crisis requires stronger coordination between European policy frameworks and the challenges cities face on the ground. Bringing together European and city-level perspectives, this dialogue will explore how local governments are responding to growing housing pressures and how European institutions can better support their efforts through policy frameworks, regulation and financing. The discussion will address the opportunities and challenges of translating European housing priorities into concrete local action, while considering how cities’ experiences and needs can contribute to shaping a more effective and coordinated European response to the housing crisis.
