i think times of urgency could be perfect for upscaling, but we need to be able to imagine a really different world: housing for all is not just a political option, it becomes a necessity

cooperative housing organisations could be a solution for upscaling. This means people could own or rent apartments from the cooperative and decide more themself

at the concrete level there is hardly a "common interest" in good housing for all: even potentially supportive actors are nowdays involved in the housing market and in favour of value increases - a challenge for alliances

there have been some studies into how collective housing can actually unintentionally contribute to gentrification in  urban areas - by raising the land rents of surrounding properties because they are often quite 'cool'. Obviously this is not a problem with the projects themselves but rather with the financialized land regime - but we need to think about ways that we can approach this

maybe as one step politicise "niche" experiences not as escape but as part of a broader topic.. and eventually securing structures may follow. eg framing housing cooperatives as contributing to the provisioning of public housing and local democracy - (in vienna "Baugruppen" became part of urban redevelopment projects), however also danger of cooptation

as many of you know vienna is really famous for it's social housing, recently the city decided that 2/3 of new building properties have to be social housing. This is very important BUT it would be a very big step forward if they would also regulate the private housing sector.. otherwise the space distribution is still unfair.

in my research (in Finland) i have found that anti-speculative collective housing projects often get support from municipalities (often because they align with various urban sustainability agendas) but then when it comes to plot allocation and pricing the projects face difficulties. To understand this though I found we actually need to zoom out to different scales to see how the state has created reforms in urban governance e.g. that cities need to compete against each other and generate income from land rents and also - in Europe - how this is related to EU demands. How do we engage with municipalities in these kinds of complex situations and better support collective alternatives?

I think a cultural change has to happen in order to upscale concepts as collective ownership or Co-housing etc. Living in Sweden, there are a lot of shared spaces as common washing-machines etc. from post modernist times but the culture of ownership leaded to more and more people having their own facilities in their flats. The common machines are getting used less and less, flats get bigger instead.

As Airbnb excludes locals from the housing market in favor of Short term rentals to tourists. It also induced gentrification and rising rents.

...or shouldn't we focus on multiplying, setting seeds for transformation elsewhere if we found succesful ways?
BIG does not always comply with degrowth strategies.

in the present situation social proximity is actually at risk, this includes house sharing, flat sharing, hospitality. Going at the root of the problem means we really have to get into open-localism: challenging disconnection from our living spaces, as well as disconnection from the places we visit by travelling, that is created by an event like COVID, which hypermobility amplifies. On the opposite with open-localism, we can get into social rapprochement.

As international tourism takes a dive, Airbnb hosts have converted short term rentals into long term rentals allowing more locals into the property market. At the same time hosts cannot afford to pay mortgages - could this spark a housing recession???
