Housing and Social Protection for all to End Homelessness Roundtable

October 12, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am EDT

Free

The “Housing and Social Protection for all to End Homelessness” Roundtable, jointly organized by UN DESA and UN-Habitat, marks a milestone of the collaboration between the two agencies on the topic.

The Roundtable gathers high-level technical experts, as well as representatives of Governments, to discuss the new urgency of addressing homelessness within the context of a COVID-19 new normal, as well as the opportunities arising from the collaborations established throughout the response phase.

The event also builds on the lessons learnt through the Expert Group Meeting on Affordable Housing and Social Protection Systems for All to Address Homelessness (May 2019), the 58th Commission on Social Development (February 2020) and the historical first United Nations resolution to address homelessness that was adopted by the UN Economic and Social Council in June 2020.
