How participate in October 2009’s World Zero Evictions Days
For the development of this action, we propose during the whole month of October to:
...
- Denounce the threats of forced evictions and demolition (using the online Zero Evictions Alert)
- Block evictions
- “Requisition” empty housing
- Fight privatization and the deregulation of the housing sector
- and more ...
We propose that local authorities and supporting governments should coordinate action with the movements in order to:
- Declare their territory “eviction-free zones”
- Approve coordinated action plans for “zero evictions and housing rights”
- Set up Popular Funds for Land and Housing
- and more ...
These proposals should form part of local, national and regional platforms and be launched through rallies, sit-in, press conferences, delegations, forums, broadcasts and whatever other means may serve to give voice to those whose housing rights have been violated.
Then, during the World Urban Forum (Rio de Janeiro, March 22-26, 2010) we will decide together the next steps, toward the organization of the World Assembly of the Inhabitants (WSF, Dakar, 2011).
Therefore, if you have not already done, We ask you to hesitate no longer in:
