"Study on Social Services of General Interest- Social Housing"

The European Commission has contracted a consortium led by Bernard Brunhes

International (BBI) to carry out a study of four different types of social services of

general interest in 22 EU/EFTA/EEA countries: childcare, social housing, long-term

care and employment services.

The main objective of the study is to map these services with a particular emphasis

on:

• the regulatory environment in which the four types of social services are provided;
• the main types of service providers for each of the selected social services areas;
• the relevant quality frameworks applicable to these social services.
