Housing and Land Rights Violation Maps The maps below were created to help you with your campaigning efforts. Use them for press releases, issue education, as pamphlets, or anything else you see fit. This map is a product of Habitat International Coalition's Housing and Land Rights Campaign 2008 and HLRN'S Violation Database (VDB), charting documented cases provided my HIC Members and other reliable sources through January 2006-September 2008. It reflects four of the most-common types of violations of the human right to adequate housing: (1) forced eviction, (2) demolition, (3) dispossession and (4) deprivation arising from privatization of social housing, land and services. Thus, the map recognizes common causal and contextual factors, including natural disaster, privatization policies, and conflict, occupation and war. The data collected in the VDB demonstrate how violations of rights to adequate housing and land degrade living conditions and deepen poverty in all regions. This map also reflects enduring violations that result from conflict, occupation and war, as well as the denial of refugees' and displaced disaster victims' rights. Uncharted areas shown as gray do not imply a lack of violations, but indicate a shortage of verifiable data and the need for more and improved monitoring and documentation. 2006-2008 Housing and Land Rights Violations
