Sustainable Housing for Inclusive and Cohesive Cities (SHICC)

Developing a widespread movement of CLTs across the european cities.

An initiative of City of Lille

Overview of the project

The Sustainable Housing for Inclusive and Cohesive Cities (SHICC) project seeks to support the establishment of more successful Community Land Trusts (CLT) in cities across the North-West European (NWE) region.

Over the three-year project (Sept 2017 – Sept 2020) it will support four existing CLTs in Brussels, Ghent, Lille and London to ‘prove the concept’, create a supportive local, regional and national policy, funding and regulatory environment for CLTs and build a movement across the region.

By the end of the project we aim to have established a widespread movement of CLTs across the region and CLTs to be widely recognised as a mainstream option for housing supply and urban renewal in all countries.
