Students camp outside Sapienza in growing housing-rights protest

← Back to Dashboard
📅 11 May 2023 📍 Italy

Students pitched tents outside universities as a movement against unaffordable rents spread from Milan to Rome, Florence, Bologna, Padua and Cagliari. At Sapienza, students described long commutes and rents that made independent study and life in the city difficult. The protest challenged housing markets that treat students and residents as sources of rent rather than communities entitled to stable homes.
