The Right to Housing

The right to housing is the fundamental entitlements that ensures everyone has access to safe, adequate, and affordable shelter. It implies that governments and societies should work to eliminate homelessness, prevent forced eviction, and promote policies that guarantee fair housing opportunities for all, regardless of income, background, or circumstances. This right recognizes housing as a basic human need and an essential foundation for dignity, security, and participation in society, encouraging efforts to create inclusive, fair, and sustainable housing systems.
