The second episode of the podcast Tocar sostre revolves around how we should understand housing: is it a basic necessity, an investment asset, or a social right? Participants include urban anthropologist Manuel Delgado, economist Josep Oliver, and economist and president of the Hàbitat3 Foundation, Carme Trilla. Moderated by journalist Carla Turró.
Tocar sostre is a podcast by the newspaper ARA in collaboration with the Col·legi de l'Arquitectura Tècnica de Barcelona and the Texas Cinemas to address, from all angles, the housing problem in Catalonia, within the framework of the ARTEC Cycle: Cineforum on housing.
Is housing a basic necessity or an investment asset? 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.
