Housing vulnerability refers to the risk or likelihood that an individual or household may experience housing instability, poor living conditions, or homelessness. It encompasses a range of factors that make people more susceptible to losing their home, living in unsafe or overcrowded conditions, or being unable to access secure, adequate, and affordable housing. Housing vulnerability impacts various dimensions of life , contributing to broader mechanisms of social exclusion. For example, experiencing housing vulnerability can significantly affect one’s ability to access the job market, maintain employment, pursue quality education, and build relationships with wider consequences on the chances of social mobility. Housing vulnerability can either result from or contribute to social exclusion, but it is often overlooked by policies, as it is primarily seen as a consequence of poor labor market integration. In the 2021\/22 course students have dissected housing vulnerability by identifying a variety of conditions, situations and factors such as homelessness, evictions, informality, domestic violence, and changes in family structure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
