Couple of hundred citizens gathered in front of the Faculty of Philosophy in Belgrade on May 26. The reasons for their dissatisfaction are the new authorisations given to private enforcement officers and the criminalisation of solidarity. The demand of the protest organised by the United Action Roof over One’s Head (Združena akcija Krov nad glavom) is to protect the right to have a home.

FOR ANOTHER EUROPE, WHICH DEFENDS THE RIGHT TO HOUSING! Read the full statement at http://bit.do/ForAnotherEurope We, members of the European Action Coalition for the Right to Housing and to the City coming from 20 countries, #1 Experience the everyday growth of housing problems in Europe. Millions of people are homeless or living in insecure and inadequate houses. #2 Affirm that the EU institutions bare significant responsibility for the current housing crisis! #3 Demand the EU to acknowledge its responsibility in the implementation of austerity and neoliberal reforms, and its collusion with national governments’ policies in the current housing injustice that affects us all! Housing is not a commodity, it is a human right! STOP THE COMMODIFICATION AND FINANCIALIZATION OF HOUSING IN EUROPE! #ForAnotherEurope #PublicInvestmentForPublicHousing #HandsOffOurHomes #StopEvictions
