The Global Initiative for Economic, Social and Cultural Rights is glad to announce the first in a series of updates that we are planning on publishing throughout 2014 and beyond, highlighting in particular important advancements in the areas of housing, land and access to productive resources. This publication, on  Advocacy Update on Rights to Housing, Land and Access to Productive Resources, is meant to help inform advocates, policy makers, civil society organizations and other stakeholders about recent developments in the field, and draw attention to emerging areas of work.

It also includes a special ‘IN FOCUS’ section on ‘Defenders of Rights to Land, Housing and Productive Resources under Increasing Attack.’

We hope that this publication will be a useful resource for you and that it helps to raise awareness of the many advancements that are taking place at international, regional and national levels.
