ABSTRACT
Ensuring that everyone enjoys the legal and physical protections provided by security of tenure will continue to be one of the major challenges facing policy- and law-makers in the coming years. Chapter 5 reviewed some of the current trends on secure tenure, while Chapter 6 explored a cross-section of some of the key policy responses that have been employed to address the problem of tenure insecurity throughout the world today. This chapter expands on the findings in Chapter 6 and offers a series of proposals designed to strengthen the prospects of security of tenure by focusing on the human rights dimensions of a status that is increasingly seen as an enforceable human right.
The objective is to … guarantee that all persons, everywhere, can enjoy appropriate degrees of secure tenure throughout their lives
