# Tenant's Rights across Europe (University of Bremen, 2014)

* The University of Bremen acted as a coordinator of transnational research Tenlaw Project on Tenancy Law and Housing Policy in Multi-level Europe
* As a part of the research, they compiled a series of reports from different European countries in an information brochure [Tenant's Rights Brochure: "My Rights as Tenant in Europe"](https://www.uni-bremen.de/fileadmin/user_upload/fachbereiche/fb6/fb6/Forschung/ZERP/TENLAW/My_Rights_as_Tenant_in_Europe.pdf)
  * **The brochures provide an overview of rental dwelling and the rights and obligations of tenants in the different EU and non-EU States**: the ways to find a dwelling, the conclusion, execution and termination of rental contracts, bureaucratic duties, possible traps, the role of estate agents and tenants’ associations (including contact data) as well as ways to apply for public/ social housing etc.
  * You can find and download the country reports here: <https://www.uni-bremen.de/jura/tenlaw-tenancy-law-and-housing-policy-in-multi-level-europe/citizens-info>
  * Several reports also focus on comparative analysis of neighbouring countries, such as Denmark, Finland and Sweden, Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania: <https://www.uni-bremen.de/jura/tenlaw-tenancy-law-and-housing-policy-in-multi-level-europe/reports/intra-team-comparisons>

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://housing-base.journalismarena.eu/access-to-housing/law-regulations-and-other-policy/tenants-rights-across-europe-university-of-bremen-2014.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
