Leaflet: Guiding principles on security of tenure for the urban poor

In her latest report, presented to the UN Human Rights Council, the Special Rapporteur  proposes a series of principles to provide guidance on how States and other actors should address the challenge of ensuring adequate housing, from a security of tenure perspective, for poor and vulnerable people in urban and peri-urban areas.

These guiding principles are reproduced in the leaflet “Guiding principles on security of tenure for the urban poor”. The material is available in five languages: English, Portuguese, Spanish, French and Arabic.

*The Special Rapporteur also developed a guide, in which the security of tenure report is reproduced as well as the resolution adopted by the Human Rights Council which includes references to the security of tenure thematic, based on the rapporteur’s guiding principles presented on the report.
