Wohnungskrise und Alter, a talk on housing for older people, Berlin
On Sunday 15 November 2026 at 14:00 the Amerika-Gedenkbibliothek in Berlin hosts a talk called Wohnungskrise und Alter, the housing crisis and old age. The listing says that nationwide some 2.8 million senior households need age-appropriate housing, while a move to such flats is hardly possible. Some people stay in a larger flat because renting a smaller one is more expensive, and people living alone in Berlin spend about 34 percent of their pension on rent excluding heating. The organisers inform about the current situation on the housing market and the options for living in old age. The organisers are Teilhabe e.V. and the editors of the book KlassenLos, about social resistance from Hartz IV to the inflation protests. Entry is free. A public talk on a practical topic is easy to attend alone, and questions from the floor are part of it. «Wir informieren über die aktuelle Situation auf dem Wohnungsmarkt und Möglichkeiten für das Wohnen im Alter.» Starts 14:00, ends about 16:00. Source: kulturdaten.berlin (Technologiestiftung Berlin) — Berlin cultural events data, checked on the organiser's own page. The listing gives the end as 16:00 and the entry as free.
