Produktbeschreibung

Available open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence. This book sheds light on the challenges faced by Irish social housing residents, including substandard living conditions and unsafe environments that harm physical and mental health. It emphasizes the 'networks of care' and mutual aid in working-class communities and addresses the right to adequate public housing at the local level. The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the life-or-death importance of housing quality and the necessity for long-term collaboration between housing and health sectors. Adopting a 'City of Care' approach, which prioritizes social capital, affordable housing, and community infrastructure, is vital. This book advocates for systemic reform that incorporates an ethics of care into all policies, a crucial step in promoting public health and social justice in Europe and beyond.
