There it is. Let's remember, evictions are traumatic, can ruin lives and can easily result in homelessness - especially when there's nowhere affordable to go. So, why do govts entrust solving the housing crisis to an industry that is helping to create it?

New episode of #PushbackTalks out now! How did a decade of mass protests lead to the opposite of what they fought for? Journalist @Vinncent speaks w @leilanifarha & @FredrikGertten on the role of the media in political outcomes & how we can build more successful movements
BLACKSTONE ALERT! They're back at it - having just purchased Toronto based Tricon - a big holder of apartments + dvlpmts in Canada and single family homes in the US. This does not bold well in the face of weak tenant protections across North America.
Evicting #encampments doesn't suddenly make people housed; it just means time, money, and resources are wasted to commit atrocious harm and violate people's rights, all while forcing them into less visible and more dangerous spaces outdoors. theprovince.com/opinion/op-ed/…

“We’re seeing a rise of encampments because we have a housing system that produces homelessness,” says Leilani Farha of The Shift. Read how Farha and The Shift are changing government responses to encampments in Canada. @Make_TheShift catherinedonnellyfoundation.org/updates/homele…
Evicting #encampments doesn't suddenly make people housed; it just means time, money, and resources are wasted to commit atrocious harm and violate people's rights, all while forcing them into less visible and more dangerous spaces outdoors. theprovince.com/opinion/op-ed/…
“In Finland, the number of unhoused people has fallen sharply. The reason: The country applies the Housing First concept. Those affected by homelessness receive a small apartment and counselling – without any preconditions. And: All this is cheaper than accepting homelessness.”
Nada de nós sem nós! Nothing about us without us! 6 yrs after meeting the incredible founder of the national movement of homeless people in Brazil, Maria Lusa, I'm in Brasilia to help formulate + launch the Ministry of Human Rights' Housing First program. It's an inspiring…
@Make_TheShift @FEANTSA @rightohousing @juliehannah_ Yep, they have a Ministry of Human Rights. Jealous? I am! And that Ministry is launching a national housing first program with a human rights frame. Jealous? I am!
As a doctor, even the revised policy of opening warming centres at -5C exposes too many to harm/injury. Hundreds of people cannot access a shelter bed. Many will resort to the hospital to survive. We shouldn’t need “extreme weather” to ensure housing as a human right.
Housing🏘️: During COVID-19, @leilanifarha, the former UNSR @adequatehousing and current Global Director @Make_TheShift, urged governments to create housing that would be “sustainable & resilient in the face of the next global crisis.” New Hampshire acted: perma.cc/F77R-44CV
I keep reading about statements and actions by university students - including by racialized students - relying on international humanitarian and human rights law to assess the situation in Gaza and Israel. Most conclude with a demand for a ceasefire. Many are then challenged as…
Every day is housing day if you're homeless, a tenant fighting an above guideline rent increase, or just struggling to pay your rent or mortgage! We know govts in 🇨🇦 can respond in ways that are more proportionate to the crisis at hand, but they clearly need to be cajoled and…

Homeless encampments will never satisfy governments’ obligations on the right to housing, but since they exist, the most constructive way forward is one that promotes dignity, human rights and well-being. **New op-Ed introducing standards that should be applied by all cities X…
@Make_TheShift @leilanifarha @HousingRightsCA @WNHHNetwork @KaitlinJSchwan 📢 Witnesses also call for: - eviction prevention programs & increased legal supports for tenants (particularly low-income, newcomer & Indigenous tenants) - disaggregated data & transparency - immediate conditions attached to tax breaks (like the new GST rebate❗️)
@Make_TheShift @leilanifarha @HousingRightsCA @WNHHNetwork @KaitlinJSchwan 🙅♀️When asked if there are win-win solutions for tenants & financialized landlords in this housing landscape, there was a resounding "no."
