#Collaborativehousing does not scale up on its own: it needs public policies, institutional recognition and stable alliances. Property developers cannot be the only actors enlarging the housing stock.

Network of Cities for Collaborative Housing @netcoproject.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

The question is no longer only whether collaborative housing works, but how it can grow without losing its community dimension. A European institutional perspective —with contributions from Amsterdam and Brussels— to think about.

The full room confirms that collaborative housing is entering the European urban agenda and is becoming a relevant part of the local public conversation. Even the mayor of Montpellier has shown up!

Full and warm room in Montpellier for the public event of NETCO, the European network of cities and organisations working to promote #collaborativehousing in response to the housing access crisis. We are talking about local governments, affordable housing and collaborative models.

L’habitat collaboratif ne se développe pas tout seul : il a besoin de politiques publiques, de reconnaissance institutionnelle et d’alliances stables. Les promoteurs immobiliers ne peuvent pas être les seuls acteurs à augmenter le parc de logements

Network of Cities for Collaborative Housing @netcoproject.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

La question n’est plus seulement de savoir si l’habitat collaboratif fonctionne, mais comment il peut se développer sans perdre sa dimension communautaire. Un regard institutionnel européen (avec des contributions d’Amsterdam et de Bruxelles) pour réfléchir

Network of Cities for Collaborative Housing @netcoproject.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

La salle pleine confirme que l’habitat collaboratif entre dans l’agenda urbain européen et occupe une place importante dans le débat public local. Même le maire de Montpellier est venu !

Salle pleine à Montpellier pour l’événement public de NETCO, le réseau européen de villes et d’organisations qui travaille à promouvoir l’habitat collaboratif face à la crise de l’accès au logement. Nous parlons de gouvernements locaux, de logement abordable et de modèles collaboratifs.

Network of Cities for Collaborative Housing @netcoproject.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

La vivienda colaborativa no escala sola: necesita políticas públicas, reconocimiento institucional y alianzas estables. Los promotores inmobiliarios no pueden ser los únicos actores que amplían el parque de vivienda.

Network of Cities for Collaborative Housing @netcoproject.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

La pregunta ya no es si la vivienda colaborativa funciona, sino cómo puede crecer sin perder su dimensión comunitaria. Una mirada institucional europea (con aportaciones desde Amsterdam y Bruselas) para pensar cómo ciudades y regiones pueden apoyar una vivienda colaborativa, asequible e inclusiva.

Network of Cities for Collaborative Housing @netcoproject.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

La sala llena confirma que la vivienda colaborativa está entrando en la agenda urbana europea y ocupa un lugar relevante en la conversación pública local. ¡Incluso ha venido el alcalde de Montpellier!

“Sostre Cívic is not a developer. It goes beyond that: it is driven by a grassroots social movement that manages a housing stock under a non-speculative approach and has made possible access to the largest cooperative financing in European history.” ◼ Jose Téllez, @sostrecivic.bsky.social

In Bologna, collaborative housing projects reserve space for mutual support activities among residents. It is not an add-on. It is part of the definition, part of the model. First project: 2017. Today: a strategic part of the municipal housing plan. #CollaborativeHousing

“The cooperatives financed by Amsterdam are promoted under a non-speculative model. Rent cannot rise above the CPI. This is key to maintaining the affordability of the model.” 700 homes under way. A €360M national fund on the way. ◼ Sander Voogt, City of Amsterdam 🇳🇱

NETCO, through exchange among public sector professionals (already involved in or interested in collaborative housing), generates unique knowledge that does not exist in other spaces and is, at the same time, essential for the development of the sector. ◼ Maite Arrondo, @netcoproject.bsky.social

"El porcentaje de ingresos destinado al alquiler en las zonas metropolitanas del sur y centro de Europa es estructuralmente insostenible. La respuesta tiene que ser estructural." ⚠️ Consulta pública sobre Ley de Vivienda Asequible abierta hasta 3 de abril. ◼ Grzegorz Gajewski, Comisión Europea 🇪🇺
