CoHousing Inclusive

Self-Organized, Community-Led Housing for All

Experimental dwelling forms - CoHousing Cultures - are entering the mainstream. But to what extent are they accessible and affordable for all, including people with more or less money, with or without refugee experience, with or without disabilities? Community-led housing initiatives are already developing diverse, sustainable neighborhoods, driven by civil society and increasingly supported by foundations, cooperatives and municipalities as well as housing companies and developers.
