The laboratories were conducted in close collaboration with the AUNE programme at the Ministry of Environment and the Network Developers at Y-Foundation. The event gathered some 100 experts, decision makers and collaborators of Y-Foundation to reflect on the ongoing transition period toward a new phase in the Finnish homelessness strategy. RESET presentation covered the experiences and outcomes of 18 2-hour laboratory sessions which took place in 2019 in a supported housing unit in Helsinki, at Tampere University with the City of Tampere and local homelessness actors, and at Y-Foundation with national homelessness actors. Besed on these Change Laboratories, a concept of Finnish Housing First 2.0 is being collectively formulated.
