Housing in Italy through the Telescope and the Microphone
International Perspectives and Experiences from Housing Project Stakeholders
As in most OECD countries, obtaining good-quality housing in a location facilitating
access to jobs, public services and amenities can be very challenging for Italian
households with low or unstable income. This book sheds light on access to housing
in Italy from two different, complementary vantage points. First, it puts the Italian
housing market in international perspective using OECD statistics and analysis to
compare housing policies and outcomes in Italy to other OECD countries. Second, it
zooms in on selected Italian innovative housing projects, where it asks residents
and other stakeholders about their experiences with these initiatives: what were their
difficulties, how have the projects been designed and developed, what did the projects
bring to them?
