Strategie Unii Europejskiej wobec problemu bezdomności

Abstract

Homelessness, considering the scale of the phenomenon, the complex reasons and the painful socio-economic effects of it, is a wide-spread and significant problem, which has specific regional and local conditioning. It seems right to implement various initiatives at the EU level, as well as to incorporate non-governmental organizations in the realization of programs in the field of social assistance. Despite numerous discussions, which are conducted in multi-national forums, as well as activities undertaken in individual countries, the homelessness problem still exists and can not be successfully resolved. Thus, in the present article a trial was undertaken to analyze select EU strategies aimed at implementing a concrete initiatives.
