The Neha Review Panel would like to share its overarching conclusion: Canada is not meeting all the conditions required to realize the right to  housing in a manner that is inclusive, gender-sensitive, and consistent with its human rights obligations.

Housing is dignity. Housing is a human right.🏠

Neha Review Panel Recommendation 5: Establish human rights-based housing standards across jurisdictions. Because every community deserves fairness, equity, and a place to call home.
