Co-re-habi(li)tation strategies in Denmark and Europe The project aims to map vacant social housing in smaller towns and rural districts in Denmark, engaging local and national stakeholders in rethinking these properties. Through a comparative study between different European countries, the research will look at new models to conceive habitation and habitability.
