“The Ways out of homelessness partnership has united homelessness organizations from four Central European countries (the Czech Republic,Hungary, Poland and Romania) as well as FEANTSA, the European Federation of National Organisations working with the Homeless. While there have been several European projects and exchanges of know-how and good practice in the field of housing, representatives of the partner organizations felt the need for focusing exclusively on local solutions from the region. This focus centred on the system, rate and availability of general social support, as well as social housing and housing subsidies

in partner countries as these differ greatly from those existing in older EU member states, creating unique challenges for both homeless people and support workers trying to help their clients find ways out of homelessness.”
