He has recently raised concerns about the severe shortage of university housing in Italy, highlighting that only 11,623 beds have been made available against a target of 60,000 by 2026, as part of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (Pnrr). His advocacy emphasizes the impact of rising rental costs on students, calling the current housing situation 'dramatic.'
