Houselessness in Amsterdam 
Housing is a basic need and is embedded in the fabric of our society. At the same time, housing in the Netherlands is not seen as a basis for overcoming social problems, but as something that can only be regained once these problems have been overcome. Luisa looks at several misconceptions about homelessness and asks what factors prevent unconditional housing. This sub-project will produce a documentary Interspace: Housing on the Edge on houselessness in Amsterdam.
