People that are crucial in our lives, including nurses, educators or policemen, are often not able to afford the high rental fees and thus need to live in the outskirts and bear with long commuting times. In the mid of 2015, the Global Shapers Munich Hub supported Ananda Ventures in researching the topic of affordable housing in Germany's major cities. Ananda Ventures is a Munich based social investment fund founder by Young Global Leader Johannes Weber.
