Bridging Generations, Building Communities: Lessons from Sweden’s SällBo Project
In this powerful international edition of The Social Housing Round Table, Dragana Curovic from Eurhonet (the European Housing Network) joins Matt Baird to share the story behind SällBo – an innovative, multi-generational housing project in Sweden designed to combat loneliness, strengthen community ties, and challenge assumptions about who belongs together.
From cultural integration to design thinking, Dragana unpacks how bringing together older people, refugees, and young adults under one roof not only worked, but thrived. This conversation explores what happens when providers trust people to self-organise, why housing design matters, and what the UK can learn from reimagining community from the ground up.
Big thank you to Case Management Solutions Group Ltd and Alertacall Ltd for sponsoring The Social Housing Round Table, without them, none of this would be possible.
