By Responsible City Team on Tue, Sep 16, 2025

Dr. Andrej Holm, urban sociologist at Humboldt University Berlin, explores the intersections of gentrification, comparative housing policy, and European urban politics. His research is grounded in long-standing engagement with housing struggles in Berlin, including close observation of initiatives such as the Deutsche Wohnen & Co enteignen referendum. As a public intellectual and former State Secretary for Housing for the Berlin Senate, Holm significantly shaped debates around housing justice in Germany. His critical perspective offers valuable insights for understanding and advancing affordable housing in specific contexts as well as in comparative analysis.

The event will take place online on 19 November from 12:30 to 13:30 CET and can be attended via this Zoom link. More information on the Lunch Lecture series can be obtained from the flyer below.
