Analysis of the causes of homelessness and attempts to change their situation among homeless people with higher education are the purpose of the presented article. Losing home among people with higher education is not a common topic of research and analysis. In society, a homeless person is associated rather with an uneducated person. In order to analyze the reasons, the general situation and actions taken to overcome homelessness, five individual in-depth interviews with homeless men from the Mazovia region were carried out. All respondents completed university studies. Among the respondents, the main causes of homelessness are addictions and conflicts in marriage. The respondents admit that it is difficult for them to improve their situation, especially in terms of raising professional qualifications. They have education, so they mostly wonder what other actions they could take. Completed studies show that leaving homelessness, even with a university degree, is not easy. There is no effective system of help for homeless people in this group of people – they are offered jobs or courses and training definitely not corresponding to their possibilities and education.

The issue of homelessness exists in every county and even the wealthiest have not managed to eliminate it. Countries with a highly-developed system of homeless people assistance record the largest number of them in their statistics. At the beginning of 2023, the number of homeless people in Germany amounted to 372,000. The purpose of the research was to diagnose the functioning of homeless people in Germany and to show their individual life experiences. The method used was a narrative interview according to Mayring. The research was carried out within the territory of Westphalia, and in the institutional meaning, the research area was the Social and Educational Care Home. As a result of the research, it turned out that the causes of homelessness, among others, include: arrears in rent payments and related evictions, unemployment, as well as divorces, death of a partner and addictions. Homeless people are rather satisfied with the fact that they live in the Social and Educational Care Home, which provides homeless men with food, housing and all kinds of support services.

Problem bezdomności występuje w każdym państwie i nawet najbogatszym nie udało się go wyeliminować. Kraje mające silnie rozbudowany system pomocy ludziom bezdomnym odnotowują w swoich statystykach największą ich liczbę. Liczba osób bezdomnych w Niemczech na początku 2023 r. wynosiła 372 tys. osób. Celem podjętych badań była diagnoza funkcjonowania osób bezdomnych w Niemczech oraz ukazanie ich indywidualnych doświadczeń życiowych. Za metodę posłużył wywiad narracyjny według Mayringa. Badania prowadzone były na terenie Westfalii, a w sensie instytucjonalnym terenem badań był Dom Opieki Społeczno-Pedagogicznej. Okazało się, że wśród przyczyn bezdomności znajdują się m.in. zaleganie z opłatami czynszowymi i związane z tym eksmisje, bezrobocie, a także rozwody, śmierć partnera oraz uzależnienia. Osoby bezdomne są raczej zadowolone z tego, że mieszkają w Domu Opieki Społeczno-Pedagogicznej, który zapewnia bezdomnym mężczyznom wyżywienie, mieszkanie i wszelką pomoc w zakresie wsparcia.
