One of the great challenges of student mobility is the ability to find reliable and quality temporary accommodation in a short time.
HOME2(Squared), placing itself in continuity with the previous research project HOME – Home Of Mobile Europeans (2019-2022), aims to support Erasmus+ academics and stakeholders (universities, housing providers, student associations etc.) in the implementation, on a European scale, of processes related to Student Accommodation.
HOME2 has three main objectives:
• to continue the implementation activities of the HOME interface, within the Erasmus+ App, and the enhancement of its digital functions in order to create a univocal and transnational language to support the search and promotion of suitable accommodation for mobile students;
• to promote, on a European scale, the development of inclusive, reliable and quality housing solutions for university students, through the activation of a network with the project’s main stakeholders, in order to foster dialogue and multidisciplinary cooperation at the same time;
• develop guidelines and directions useful for the development of a possible European model of temporary accommodation for mobile students.
