Abstract
In this conference, firstly the 6 facets of patriarcal housing are presented. Housing as a space of relegation, as a consumer place, as a consumer good, as a place of exploitation of women's labor, as a primary site of Gendered socialisation between boys and girls and as a space of power and violence. Secondly, housing is presented as a ressource of feminist transformation in the context of a systemic triple crisis: housing, care and environemental. The recommandations for a feminist transformation are followed: The environment that best suits women's needs is the city (1), The intermediate scale as a space for resilience and empowerment (2), Designing space from the perspective of care work (3), Women's participation in decision-making processes (4), Taking housing out of speculative logic (5)
