EVSİZLİK VE EVSİZLERE GENEL BİR BAKIŞ

Abstract

Yalnız, tedirgin, gururlu, kirli ve kötü kokulu, öfkeli, mağrur, tuhaf bakışlı, zor öykülere sahip insanlar. Bu sıfatlar yan yana geldiğinde çoğu zaman bir evsizi tanımlamak için kullanılmaktadır. Hemen hemen dünyanın her yerinde sayıları gittikçe artan evsizler, üç beş eşya ile otobüs terminallerini, tren garlarını, hastaneleri ya da bankomatları geçici ya da sürekli olarak mesken olarak kullanan, zor öykülerin mağrur bakışlı aktörlüğünü üstlenmişlerdir. Birleşmiş Milletler Raporlarına göre, Dünyada 100 milyon evsiz bulunmaktadır. Pek çok sosyal sorunun bir bileşkesi konumunda olan evsizlik, 21. Yüzyıl’da insanlığın içinde bulunduğu trajedinin de en önemli göstergelerinden biridir. Kuşkusuz ki evsizlik günümüz dünyasında, en önemli sosyal sorunlardan bir tanesidir. Bu çalışmada evsizlik olgusunun tanımlanması, evsizliği oluşturan nedenler ve evsizlerin genel karakteristikleri üzerinde durulacaktır.
