Romana Xerez is the coordinator of the Housing4Z project, which investigates the housing challenges faced by Generation Z in Southern Europe. Her research highlights that young people are staying longer in their parental homes not due to cultural factors, but because of increasing difficulties in accessing affordable housing. Xerez emphasizes the importance of family in housing stability, while also noting the widening intergenerational inequalities and economic challenges that affect youth today. Her work aims to provide scientific evidence to inform public policies that can improve housing conditions and promote social justice for younger generations.
