Amnesty International welcomes the call for inputs by the UN Special Rapporteur on Adequate Housing as a Component of the Right to an Adequate Standard of Living, and on the Right to Non-discrimination in this Context, to inform his report to the General Assembly in October 2024, and for developing international guiding principles for resettlement. This submission draws on Amnesty International’s documentation and monitoring of eviction, displacement, and resettlement processes in several countries around the world. Based on this, the submission elaborates some critical steps that states must take to ensure the resettlement planning, implementation and monitoring comply with international human rights standards on the right to adequate housing among other human rights.
