Access to housing and emancipation

The third episode of the podcast Tocar sostre addresses the difficulties of access to housing and the challenges they pose for emancipation. Participants include Pol Casellas, architect and digital communicator; Jose Téllez, representative of Sostre Cívic; and Anna Puigdevall, general director of Som Habitatge. Moderated by Laura Casserres, ARA journalist specializing in housing.

Tocar Sostre is a podcast by the newspaper ARA with the Col·legi de l'Arquitectura Tècnica de Barcelona and the Cinemes Texas to address, from all angles, the housing problem in Catalonia, within the framework of the ARTEC Cycle: Film forum on housing.

Is housing a basic necessity or an investment good? Why has rent risen so much? What responsibility does the State have in offering affordable housing? These are questions we address throughout 8 episodes with guests such as economist Carme Trilla, anthropologist Manuel Delgado, writer Llucia Ramis, and businesswoman Joana Amat.
