This was criticized by a report presented yesterday by Amnesty International on the situation of homeless and homeless people.
The complaint is that many of the offers are difficult to access. The reason for this is that each federal state sets its own measures. In addition, the eligibility criteria would target specific groups of people, e.g. B. EU citizens exclude.
Amnesty International is therefore calling for the right to housing to be enshrined in the constitution. In addition, a housing strategy and better collection of data on homelessness are needed. “It’s not about the state providing everyone with an apartment, but about creating a system in which housing is possible for everyone,” says Amnesty Managing Director Annemarie Schlack.
