Local Social Covenant: Advancing commitments to housing justice

This letter was prepared by the Hub for Housing Justice as part of UCLG's Local Social Covenant. It is a response to the letter, “Local Social Covenant: our commitment to housing,” signed by the Mayors of Montevideo, Rabat, Barcelona, and Mexico City. Their correspondance was a response to our original communication, “Your commitment to housing justice.” As civil society networks and research organisations, we write this response drawing from our experiences advancing housing justice with the goal of offering pathways to strengthen, as requested in your letter, our collective capacity to act.
