A single public housing policy for everyone that contributes to integration into neighbourhoods and social cohesion, avoiding the territorial segregation of communities. Promote the culture of renting as a feasible means of accessing housing, facilitating information and advice through the network of Housing Offices. Strengthen policies aimed at the refurbishment of dwellings in order to avoid processes of alienation and urban segregation and to improve the quality and conditions of life for people. The best way to break down barriers between people and strengthen values of coexistence is through experience and personal contact. Creation in the neighbourhood of residents’ spaces for coexistence to foster a favourable setting for coexistence between all neighbours.
