FOR THE RIGHT TO LIVE IN THE CITY
In the city of Buenos Aires half a million residents living in unfit housing conditions, crowded together in villages, settlements, hotels, boarding houses occupied, engine blocks that are falling apart, or directly on the street. Here we perform our daily work, raise our children, we create relationships with our neighbors, we project the future and our hopes.
tenants suffer the constant rent increases that exceed our income, and demand conditions generally inaccessible to gain access to decent housing. The people of hotels suffered similar situation, being moved to the occupation of vacant homes for where we are constantly displaced and pushed to settle him increasingly away from the city or living in villages and settlements to pay the high cost of uprooting and direct action of all this violent process of our children and adolescents
currently carried out on average two evictions per day in the city. Policy historically suffered from the various governments that trample our fundamental rights and conditions for large real estate, vetoing the emergency housing bill, first and now Ibarra Macri, whose government policies further deepens the expulsion of workers from the city, with the complicity of judges who value private property than human life, or actively implementing measures of deprivation of land, as with the 36 grounds of the Housing Institute of the City (IVC) that want to sell, on the southern fringe for social housing, the loss of acres for recreation such as park concessions February 3, park Sarmiento, Roca Park, removal of cultural centers ... articulating a parallel construction engineering megaprojects such as the civic center in Barracks ; the installation of several poles, pharmaceutical, technology, film-to occupy public lands without paying most taxes, the creation of mixed corporations to profit from government property, all this leaving thousands of families in the street. All these facts have the complicity of other blocks in the Legislature.
The Housing Institute of the City (IVC) that must by law provide housing solutions today is underfunded and not running the miserable budgets, leading functions and budget of the South Corporation and Comprehensive Social Management Unit (UGIS) with black boxes run by characters favored and supported politically.
All these actions demonstrate their total lack of respect for human rights enshrined in the Constitution and the City, including international treaties guaranteeing access to adequate shelter for the most vulnerable social sectors. Macri's government not only fails to provide adequate protection for these rights but, worse, hindering its realization not taking any steps to comply with its obligation. There are no excuses for budget while ensuring access to the most fundamental rights and a State can not, under any circumstances justify the failure to its basic obligations that are delegated.
Therefore we demand:
immediate suspension of evictions.
not the sale of the 36 grounds of the IVC, which is intended to build housing.
For an Emergency Housing Act program and budget with real.
Housing plans providing for the demand for the homeless in the city to control and participation of the inhabitants.

social rental, which does not exceed 20% of household income, with state guarantee. Private
shantytowns for all its inhabitants.
summon to defend the next evictions Community Center La Casa, Hotel El Cid, Lope de Vega 419, and all that are scheduled.
call to mobilize on Thursday March 11 at 16 pm. the Obelisk.
THE CITY IS OURS!
