  This review takes a closer look at the Women and housing: Housing solutions responding to the special needs of women study written by Fanni Dés and Zsuzsanna Pósfai. The authors ask how the housing crisis in Hungary affects women and what solutions can mitigate these effects. In the review, we summarize this study and discuss additional research areas worth analyzing. We identify the three most important contributions of the study. First, the authors connect the housing crisis with the oppression of women and by doing so, they can address the housing crisis within its social and economic context. Second, due to their qualitative methodology, the authors throw light upon the human face of the housing crisis and the vulnerability of women in it. Finally, by providing a guide to institutions and local governments, the study helps mitigate the effects of the housing crisis on women.

  This article aims to enrich knowledge about homeless women. As according to most research (although many argue that this can be caused by the methods used) there are more men than women in a situation of homelessness, most research focuses on men. After summarizing already existing evidence about homeless women in Hungary and abroad, the authors introduce their work. They analysed the case dossiers of fifty women sleeping in BMSZKI’s hostels for homeless people in Budapest. The description of basic demographics is followed by attributes special to women, like motherhood and keeping in touch with children (whether small children who are separated from them or grown ones) and romantic relationships. Data was recorded by social workers, and reflect their views, thoughts and the outcomes they esteem possible for the women. Results reflect the perceptions of the women and their support workers.

  Our research focused on Hungarian women working as prostitutes in Switzerland. We came in contact with younger and active age women who worked as legal sexworkers in Zurich and Basel. We modified the ISEL test (Cohen és Hoberman 1983) and we used it in our research work. We called it street work ISEL test. It includes 20 items supplemented with data about personal social networks.
  We have determined that the driving force of prostitution is basically livelihood. In many cases this is the base of choice of becoming sexworkers. However, we found the signs of vulnerability and exploitation which proved to be more significant abroad than in women’s home environments. Four groups can be distinguished in prostitutes’ social space that seems to affect women’s vulnerability in different ways. These groups are family and friends; husband (life partner) and his family; beneficiaries of prostitution; social workers and official professionals (police).
  Based on our experience social workers and volunteers can use street work ISEL test and the matrix of social space (Street work-ISEL display) in street work for collecting information about individuals and about the target group of social work.
