Housing Rights Task Force: Eviction Free Phnom Penh
@ Meta House
The single most egregious violation of housing rights is the unacceptable and often violent practice of forced evictions. The Cambodian NGO "Housing Rights Task Force" (HRTF) states that "over 10 percent of Phnom Penh's inhabitants have been evicted in the past two decades." As land prices have soared, 150,000 people have found themselves without home. What are the underlying causes for this situation?
HRTF invites you to join activists, filmmakers, and photographers in exploring the structural factors that lie behind the systematic violation of land and housing rights and join the call for making Phnom Penh an "Eviction Free Zone."
Free admission!
