Join HI in Conversation Sept 2022

Join us for an hour starting at 12:00 UTC on 30 September, 2022 to learn about the study coordinated by Cohabilis in France on the economic potential of inter-generational solidarity homesharing.

This study was carried out by three university researchers and a consulting firm. The objectives were to identify the economic “impacts” of the solidarity plan and to lay the first foundations of a sustainable economic model for the accompanying organisations.

This work has shown that, by encouraging mutual aid between generations, substantial savings can be made by young people and substantial savings for the social security fund. Further, according to data that we will present to you, the presence of a young person with a senior housemate has a very probable preventive effect. Finally, the study identified the potential for developing the scheme in France.

This conversation is open to everyone. The study will be presented by Joachim Pasquet, Directeur of Cohabilis, with opportunity for questions and discussion.
