DASH: Deliver sAfe and Social Housing

Deliver sAfe and Social Housing (DASH) is a four-year project funded by the European Union’s Horizon research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions – Staff Exchange. The DASH project aims to generate new ideas about how to promote more sustainable and safer housing, and how to convert these new ideas into concrete housing products, processes and/or services using innovative methodological tools. Through collaborative research and peer learning, DASH facilitates the exchange of knowledge between different disciplines, sectors and nations. The project focuses on interdisciplinary learning and co-producing knowledge to develop innovative housing models that can provide sustainable and safe housing for all.

The DASH project seeks to gain a holistic understanding of the social housing systems at national and local levels. This includes examining administrative, institutional, and financial aspects of housing provision, as well as studying the unique characteristics of national and local housing markets. By analyzing legal frameworks, tenure structures, prices, affordability, ownership models, and financing options, the project aims to develop innovative and sustainable housing solutions. Through collaborative research and knowledge-sharing, DASH aims to create a platform for interdisciplinary learning and the co-production of ideas to address diverse housing needs. The project brings together academic institutions, local authorities, housing associations, and civil society organizations to leverage their expertise and experiences.
