The project’s objective is to study the housing ecosystem in Poland, with a focus on mapping non-residential vacant properties within Polish local governments and adapting them to residential purposes.
As part of the project, the IBS team will:
- prepare an outline of housing policies for selected local governments and attempt to estimate the number of vacant properties based on data from heat source declarations, as well as other information sources,
- participate in the works of the housing coalition #PustostanyNaDomy, led by Habitat for Humanity,
- develop a case study on the adaptation of vacant non-residential buildings into residential ones based on examples from across Poland,
- co-develop solutions and recommendations for public policy regarding the support of adapting non-residential vacant properties for housing purposes.
