de Kasko
Joska Ottjes is a teacher, trainer, and board member of Vereniging de Kasko. De Kasko is a co-living community in Utrecht that opened its doors in 1985. De Kasko sprung from a socialist-anarchist pursuit of an alternative way of living. Today, the residents are for the larger part in control of the building and concepts such as freedom and involvement are given shape together. Joska is also involved in the Bond Precaire Woonvormen (BPW). The BPW has been active since 2010 in the claiming of residence rights for people who are housed temporarily, precariously, or too expensively. De Kasko is in Utrecht.
