The final blog in our serious from 2022 looking at the human rights failings in asylum accommodation, looks at the right to housing.

In this part of the series, families report overcrowding, lack of communal space, and lack of access to hygiene, all made worse by the length of their stays

In October 2022, members of the #KindEconomy living in asylum hotel accommodation compiled evidence of human rights failings they experienced.

The sixth part in a blog series looking at this evidence, focuses on the ways in which living in these hotels impacted on their dignity.

Taking back the city, one garden at a time 🌱

Using public land for public good is crucial to solving the housing crisis, but it can also help to revive the connection between the local community and the land, wildlife, and food systems around them 🏡
