Homelessness in Germany: a shadow over the prosperity society!

more and more people are fighting homelessness worldwide, and the USA are at the forefront. According to the US Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the number of homeless people has increased sharply, which is due to a combination of inadequate living space, the consequences of natural disasters and the admission of migrants. In cities such as Denver and New York, many families are urgently looking for help in emergency accommodation because the cost of living in the metropolitan regions explodes.

rising homelessness in Europe

While the USA has to struggle with dramatic growth, Europe also has alarming numbers. Over 1.2 million people live here without a safe roof. Refugees are also particularly affected, of which 130,000 from Ukraine alone are considered to be homeless. The reasons for this development are complex: job announcements, debts and social conflicts mean that more and more people are slipping into homelessness.

The search for a stable living situation remains a rocky path for many.

The housing market is tense and the costs for affordable living space are increasing steadily. Martin Kositza points out that solutions are urgently needed that offer people a realistic chance of a new life.
