Global Campaign 2011 for the Right to Habitat: Call for Case Submissions

The 2011 Global Habitat Days Campaign Resistances and Alternatives for the Right to Habitatis our opportunity to raise awareness about and rally against forced evictions, insecurity of tenure and land grabbing, in solidarity with inhabitants’ organizations and victimized activists that defend the right to habitat.

We are inviting you to contribute to the development of the Global Solidarity Map, created specifically for this Campaign, by submitting cases of violations or resistances around the world. Our goal is to establish solidarity links with inhabitants’ organizations and communities affected by violations to the right to habitat, as well as with activists and groups that have been persecuted because of their work against forced evictions and land grabbing.
