What we do

Habitat for Humanity Europe, Middle East and Africa

We build strength, stability and self-reliance through shelter. 

Housing poverty around the world is so widespread, that we need to engage in many ways to solve housing problems. Together with our partners and volunteers, we provide new housing solutions and opportunities for people in need of decent shelter.
