Responsibilities of local and other subnational governments in relation to the right to adequate housing 2015, para. 58
Paragraph
Paragraph text
There are significant advantages to subnational governments developing such independent approaches. They are best placed to respond to the distinctive challenges of implementing the right to housing at the local level and to enable residents' empowerment and participation in local government. That offers an important foundation for community- based, human rights approaches to local governance and programme administration.
