This study uses lessons from eleven countries to identify solutions to the problem of extreme housing exclusion (homelessness, severe overcrowding, very poor or insecure housing).
The research:
- reviews international literature relating to the drivers of extreme housing exclusion and approaches to addressing the phenomenon;
- identifies and analyses innovative approaches to tackling the problem based on empirical evidence, including how and why they work; and
- assesses the transferability of the approaches to the UK, and what would need to change in order for them to work.
