Slum housing, Colombia

Advocate

Latin America and the Caribbean

In order to see a radical change in the housing situation in Latin America and the Caribbean, we have to do much more than help build and repair houses. We must educate ourselves and others, promote the cause of adequate housing and advocate to influence the systems, policies and laws that affect access to housing and infrastructure.

Dialogues about public policy

Help raise a collective voice in defense of the right to adequate housing. Through local and regional messages, we seek creative ways to advocate for every person in every country of Latin America and the Caribbean to have a secure home in a safe community.

Home Equals is a five-year global advocacy campaign committed to achieving policy change to ensure that people living in informal settlements have equitable access to adequate housing. Together, with partners, governments and communities, we can create lasting change.
