Homelessness presents a growing global challenge that governments worldwide have grappled with in recent years. The issue is exacerbated by the lack of a consistent definition of homelessness, incomplete statistics on the homeless population, varied methods of identifying them, and diverse designs of homelessness policies characterised by more or less different intervention systems among countries that mostly reintegrate a small fraction of homeless individuals into mainstream society. This article responds to these problems by presenting, in detail, a comprehensive analytical tool, the ‘Framework for Comprehensive Evaluation of Homelessness Policies’, which we have created and successfully used to analyse and evaluate homelessness policy in the Czech Republic. Its potential lies in identifying the strengths and all existing problems and deficiencies in current homelessness policies across different countries and/or regions, by governments at various state levels and by transnational institutions, and in proposing practical measures to mitigate them. More specifically, it allows for evaluating the complexity of existing strategic documents focused on homelessness, the relevance of the intervention tools and measures they contain, and their real modes of implementation and impacts on the target group of homeless people.
