House of Anansi CBC Massey Book Launch
Housing, Inc.: A Global Takeover and Our Fight for Home with Leilani Farha
Join us for the launch of Housing, Inc.: A Global Takeover and Our Fight for Home, the new book by renowned housing rights advocate Leilani Farha.
Drawing on decades of work around the world, Farha examines how housing has been transformed from a basic human right into a global financial asset, contributing to displacement, homelessness, and growing inequality. Through powerful stories and sharp analysis, Housing, Inc. challenges readers to rethink the meaning of home and imagine a future where housing is rooted in dignity, human rights, and justice.
Leilani Farha is the Global Director of The Shift and former United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Right to Housing. She is internationally recognized for her work advancing the human right to adequate housing.
