OMVITA

OMVITA is a French nonprofit association operating in the social and solidarity economy and recognized as an ESUS. It designs, supports and animates inclusive housing projects for older adults, people with disabilities and intergenerational communities. Its approach creates shared living environments that combine private homes with communal spaces, nearby services, group activities and strong connections to local areas.

The organization develops options such as senior coliving, béguinages, accessible homes and mixed-age projects that bring together older people, young adults and families. Its aim is to offer a human, sustainable alternative between ordinary housing and institutional accommodation, helping residents live independently while benefiting from safety, companionship and community.

OMVITA also develops its own projects for local authorities and provides assistance with project management and usage design (AMU) for housing providers, developers and other project leaders. It works with municipalities, associations and territorial partners to shape and deliver lasting housing solutions. Its commitments include tackling isolation, supporting ageing at home, improving accessibility and creating welcoming places for shared life.
