Transnational Citizen Assembly for Housing Justice in Cluj
assembly — 11.6.2023 08:00Desire Foundation organizes the Assembly for Housing Justice in Cluj within the TransEuropa Assemblies (TEA) project coordinated by European Alternatives. The project consists in a series of citizen assemblies across the continent to engage citizens in a deliberation of their priorities for the European elections in 2024.
Because one of the major problems that the inhabitants of Cluj are faced with is the cost of housing, the Assembly for Housing Justice will be focused on the housing crisis and housing justice. With this event, Desire Foundation aims to contribute to the efforts of the local housing movement Căși sociale ACUM!/ Social housing NOW! to raise awareness about the causes of housing affordability crisis and to mobilize the local communities to identify solutions and jointly struggle for their fulfillment.
People from Cluj are invited to meet our special guests: Action Logement Bruxelles (Brussels), DAL – Droit Au Logement (Paris), Habita (Lisbon), Stop Evictions (Berlin), The Common Front for Housing Rights (Bucharest), Social Housing NOW! and Desire (Cluj). We will elaborate together the Cluj Manifesto for Housing Justice.
The Assembly will gather activists/experts of the housing crisis and struggles and tenants of Cluj, mostly students and some young adult inhabitants of Pata Rât. The activists invited to our event are committed to social public housing and/or tenant organizing since the local housing movement from Cluj focuses mostly on these aspects of the housing question.
