Expert pool of flow-through sites

The Province of Utrecht gives priority to developing and testing flow-through locations. These are locations where newcomers stay who are linked to a municipality, but do not yet have housing there. Here they can make a start with integration while waiting for permanent housing. The Province would like to include the perspective of newcomers themselves. Uniquely, the province has linked a small implementing organization: the Opportunity Makers. They try from different domains and themes to improve and make sustainable the housing of newcomers in all municipalities.

Preconditions from the perspective of newcomers

In the flow-through locations expert pool, we enter into discussions with newcomers about the needs, ideas, obstacles and opportunities surrounding flow-through locations. Using our expert pool method we gather input from newcomers (the experts) in order to draw up to draw up solid preconditions from their perspective: what exactly is important, what are the minimum requirements for a flow-through location? And taking into account the possibilities: what is the desired situation for a flow-through location?
