www.unhabitat.org More than 50 participants converged in Nairobi in September 2011 to exchange views, knowledge and ideas on the future role of UN-Habitat with respect to preventing, monitoring and assessing the impact of forced evictions globally. Drawn from across the globe, the participants included experts, observers, representatives of governments, and representatives of

Permanent and Observer Missions to UN-Habitat.

Experts at the meeting affirmed their readiness to provide UN-Habitat with recommendations on the issue of UN-Habitat's role in this field in the context of the Global Housing Strategy to the year 2025 and within the framework of UN-Habitat's Adequate Housing for All Programme and the UN Housing Rights Programme. These recommendations are based on information and experience that experts and their organizations attending the meeting ha ve accumulated over many years, in many capacities, and with many varied constituencies from Asia, Latin America,

Africa, Europe and North America.

The meeting provided an opportunity for all to share experiences related to evictions and housing rights in various parts of the world and how different organizations report and implement alternatives to forced evictions. It was also a moment for UN-Habitat to launch two studies focusing on the phenomenon of eviction, its impacts, modalities and motivations. There was a consensus amongst the participants of the meeting that the Habitat

Agenda provides

a genuine rights-based approach to urban development and that various elements of that agenda should be revisited and reassessed in the context of contemporary challenges.
