Human Rights Magazine
Exploring inequality, abuse and oppression around the world, we hear from those directly involved in an issue, examine the structural context to find why rights abuse exists, and look for possible solutions.

The United Nations Commission on Human Rights estimates that there are more than 100 million people in the world who are homeless, people with no housing at all. In this episode of Human Rights Magazine, Florina Lupu examines the situation of homelessness here, in Montreal, the home city of the Upstream Journal and this podcast, in the context of the COVID pandemic, and with her guests explores how the pandemic has changed political responses to homelessness.
