The second meeting of the Intergovernmental Working Group on Housing will provide a significant contribution toward shaping discussions for the World Social Summit in addressing the basic needs and dignity of the approximately 3 billion people who do not have adequate housing. The thematic priorities identified during the first session —such as data collection, multi-level governance, financing for housing and informal settlements, land tenure security, and climate resilience—are directly aligned with the core objectives of the Summit to address inequalities, promote social inclusion, shared prosperity and ensure sustainable development. By providing a dedicated forum for Member States to discuss these critical issues, the Working Group can offer actionable insights and proven solutions that highlight the central role of housing in achieving social development goals.

Organized by FAO, this series explores how the Right to Food can be realized in urban contexts. Outcomes will provide valuable insights for the Summit on addressing food security challenges in urban settings.

This Roundtable on Adequate Housing for All is to build on the outcomes of the fifty-seventh session of the Commission for Social Development and all prior relevant United Nations commitments to address inequalities and challenges to social inclusion through fiscal, wage and social protection policies, and to address how to better implement the Copenhagen Declaration on Social Development from a housing perspectives. This Roundtable will examine the global housing crisis, review status of housing, the progress, gaps and challenges in inclusive housing policies and programmes to address homelessness, and global housing shortage, inequality, and particularly the problems faced by disadvantaged groups and discuss policies and means for social protection and access to adequate, safe and affordable housing for all. To strengthen advocacy and alliance, a full report on the outcome of The Roundtable on Adequate Housing for All will be provided to the President of World Social Summit, President of President of the General Assembly, and member states.
