The Xarxa d’Atenció Integral de Persones Sense Llar de Tarragonais leading, once again, thePoint-in-Time Count of roofless people in Tarragona. It will take place the night of the 14th to the 15th of May 2019. The first Counting was undertaken in May 2017 and 43 people sleeping rough together with 49 people sleeping in accomodation for the homeless were counted. These Countings are crucial to give dimension and to shape up the issue of homelessness in our city, consisting on one of the first steps to tackle this phenomenon.
The Xarxa (Network) was spurred by the Municipal Institute for Social Services in Tarragona (IMSST) and the UNESCO Housing Chair is part of it, together with public authorities, social entities and other university institutes.

This report reviews the legal, management and administrative obstacles in multi-owner buildings in 7 selected Member States and identifies good practices that help overcome identified issues across these Member States. The information is collected through a questionnaire distributed to legal and energy efficiency experts at national level with the aim to deepen our understanding on the legal implications of the current apartment ownership and management structure in each country and identify energy efficiency policies that encourage investments in this field. A workshop was also organised in November 2017 in Brussels with the aim to discuss these issues in more detail and draw policy recommendations on how to revise existing condominium and rental acts to make them more conducive to energy efficiency upgrades and investments in apartment buildings. Prof. Nasarre has contributed with the Spanish system to the report.
