Abstract

The aim of this report is to analyse the degree of universality of housing (support) policy across the EU member states and to refine the set of most relevant and reliable indicators that could be used to measure the universality of housing policy. The study is based on the analytical framework developed by Muñoz de Bustillo Llorente et al. (2020) proposing to measure universal social protection through the two main dimensions of coverage and adequacy. We present and discuss the results of the measured universality of housing (support) policy in the EU Member States applying our proposed methodology. The analysis is performed using OECD and Eurostat data available at the EU level. The report highlights the limitations of the data as well as possible solutions to address them, with the aim of improving the assessment of universality of housing policy and comparability across the EU member states in the future.
