Another 2,649 people, 27 percent of the total, were staying in nonconventional housing, including nonapproved accommodation structures, temporary accommodations or squats. 1,539 people, 16 percent of the total, were staying with third parties.
According to Bruss’Help, “the scale of the problem exceeds all individual initiatives,” and it hopes that the current report will help policymakers develop “more effective, structural and humane public policy measures.”
The Bruss’Help study, which is carried out every two years with the help of volunteers, tracks various forms of homelessness across the region. A more detailed, qualitative analysis is expected in June.
