Housing Europe welcomes the European Commissions initiative to develop a Right to Stay Strategy aimed at reducing territorial disparities and ensuring that all citizens can continue to live in the places they call home. The ability to remain in one's community depends not only on employment opportunities and access to services, but also on access to decent and energy-efficient housing at a cost people can afford.
