"Homo Mizerus" - the homeless newspaper

Konrad Kalinowski

English version of the article

The newspaper for the homeless, "Homo Mizerus" was launched in November 2005 as part of a resocialisation programme created by the author of the article and his associates. The programme aimed to include the homeless in the editing and distribution process and, thus, to aid them in returning to society via social and professional activisation. The article presents the project's outline, work organization, the newspaper's content and the initiated social activity.
