The Roles of Law, Religion and Housing Through the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

On March 21, 2024, the Center for the Study of Law and Religion at Emory University (CSLR) and Canopy Forum hosted a virtual conference to address the global challenges of homelessness, housing policy and housing vulnerability through the lens of the UN SDGs.

The aim of The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), ls is to call all countries to action, to promote prosperity and consideration for all people, while protecting the planet. Recent natural disasters and humanitarian emergencies, caused by climate change, conflict and poverty, have led to mass migration, and as millions are displaced into homelessness or transitional housing. These challenging situations are complicated by economic, social, legal, theological, and cultural questions that merit analysis and attention. The promise of the UN SDGs, to “leave no one behind”, can only be fulfilled if architecture is seen as a human right and if critical issues of homelessness are addressed.
