In this episode we reach out to you from  Vienna and the venue of the international conference entitled ‘Housing  for All’. We used the visit of our delegation to the Austrian capital  for this event to hold two interviews that shed light to affordable  housing from different starting points.

In the first part of our show, we meet the UN  Special Rapporteur on Adequate Housing, Leilani Farha, a leading voice  in raising awareness on a number of key challenges for affordable  housing- first and foremost financialization- through a number of  impactful initiatives such as the Global Campaign ‘The Shift’.

In the second part, we see how Barcelona and  New York city work together to address their affordable housing  challenge. What are the issues that this transatlantic partnership is  built upon? What kind of solutions are they looking for? How can you  help them? Eduard Cabre Romans, International Relations Consultant to  the Barcelona Housing Department has the answers to all these  questions.
