ROOF is an URBACT Action Planning Network on ending homelessness through housing solutions. We are a network of 9 European cities (Braga, Thessaloniki, Toulouse Métropole, Ghent, Liège, Poznan, Timișoara, Odense, Glasgow). We exchange information on making the shift towards Housing First/Led and on data collection. Each city also develops a local integrated action plan with all its stakeholders.
