Using a model first developed by @PPR_Org in Belfast, #HousingRightsInPractice supported local people to secure improvements in their housing by advocating for their #RightToHousing and other #HumanRights. [2/7] Quote attributed to UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights: “The right to housing should be seen as the right to live somewhere in security, peace <br />
and dignity.”
The report shows how the project had a positive impact on key aspects of people’s #RightToHousing - and their other #HumanRights too. #HousingRightsInPractice [3/7] Quote attributed to Leith resident and project participant: “What I have learned is massive, and it’s not just about housing. If you have an adequate house it reduces your fuel poverty, which means you are not starving or cold, which impacts on health in a positive way.”
