The paper provides a short overview on the housing emergency in Italy and focuses attention on the case of Rome, where the struggles for the right to the city are rooted in a tradition of grassroots participation. It analyzes the experience of Metropoliz, in the area of Tor Sapienza, an informal and self made practice, a symbolic place where people, from different countries cohabit. Metropoliz beyond being a visible space of struggle, occupation and marginalization, is an example of Informal Urbanism and an urban laboratory of political, social and artistic sperimentation.
Keywords: Housing, crisis, informal practices, auto-production, urban laboratory, emergency.
