Research: Rights to Housing and the Environment – Experiences of the Roma Community in Govanhill

The Roma communities in Govanhill, Glasgow, face significant challenges to attaining their right to adequate housing. This report – part of the Rights in Action project – presents findings from a participatory action research project by Romano Lav in partnership with the Poverty Alliance which explored Roma people’s experiences of social and private housing, awareness of housing rights and experiences of the local environment through the use of local parks in Govanhill. Findings from the survey show that the right to adequate housing is not being realised for members of the community.
