European Homeless Entrepreneur Report on Assistance vs Empowerment
European Homeless Entrepreneur Report on Assistance vs Empowerment
(Research for an EU Report)
Homeless Entrepreneur is visiting 12 European cities in order to carry out its Assistance vs Empowerment report. Stage 1 of the research will take place from 2022 - 2024.
Stage 1 will focus on conducting interactive research that will be done during these trips. We will have specific meetings, conduct interviews, participate in events and build our network to understand the particularities of each city.
Our aim is to present the Assistance vs Empowerment report to the European Parliament and inspire a more balanced relationship between assistance and empowerment-based solutions led by PPPs to end homelessness in Europe.
Imagine becoming homeless and completely dependent on social policies, corporate goodwill, NGOs, volunteers and random acts of kindness to get a job, housing and become an active citizen again…
Imagine wanting to truly provide the best opportunities to help empower people out of poverty…
Imagine having the right data and knowledge to improve the lives of +700,000 people experiencing homelessness in Europe…
Now, imagine helping us do rigorous research to prepare a report, which will provide a holistic vision of how assistance-based and empowerment-based solutions are addressing homelessness, for the European Parliament, so we make sound suggestions that will unify a best practice approach aimed to end homelessness as we know it.

Our European Homeless Entrepreneur Report on Assistance vs Empowerment!
Help us understand how European cities are addressing homelessness and reducing poverty.
The objective is to present an exhaustive report to the European Parliament during 2024.
