The Diccionari del sensellarisme (‘Dictionary of Homelessness’) is a dictionary created by Arrels Fundació and TERMCAT that compiles 708 Catalan terms corresponding to 562 concepts in the field. Each entry in the dictionary contains the Catalan terms, equivalents in Spanish, French and English, a definition in Catalan and, in many cases, conceptual or terminological notes that supplement the information. The concepts are structured into several thematic areas ranging from general concepts, prevention and diagnosis to causes and effects, intervention models, resources, benefits and social awareness.

This online version makes the contents of the print dictionary available to users and facilitates consultation through alphabetical and thematic searches. It also provides access to the two institutional forewords, the technical presentation, and the introduction to the work.

The collaboration between Arrels Fundació and TERMCAT responds to a shared need among public administrations, social sector and professionals to have a common, precise and agreed-upon terminology regarding homelessness. The Diccionari del sensellarisme is one of the first terminological works specifically dedicated to this field, making it a key reference tool for both professionals and research.

Clicking on "Consulta de termes" ('Term search'), terms can be looked up in three ways: using the alphabetical indexes (there is a different index for each language), using the thematic index, or making simple or advanced searches in the upper space "Text de la consulta" ('Text search') in any of the dictionary languages.
