Hybrid seminar on access to housing

EVICT hybrid seminar on access to housing

In this academic year (22/23), the EVICT project will organize a series of hybrid seminars on the different aspects of the right to housing: 1) access to housing; 2) rights in the home; and 3) exit rights.

The first seminar of this series is on access to housing, with Dr Roxani Fragkou, Dr Andrei Quintiá Pastrana, and Stefan van Tongeren, LLM. Each of the speakers will address the obstacles and barriers certain groups and people face on their road to adequate housing: asylum seekers, ex-offenders, and obstacles because of the digitalization of administrative procedures. Central in each of these presentations is the role of the international right to housing.
