About the Episode

This week we are joined by David DesBaillets, a postdoctoral scholar at the Human Rights Research and

Education Centre and The Canadian Housing Evidence Collaborative. He is published regarding issues

such as housing rights, housing policy, homelessness and socio-economic rights in Canada and the

world. On this episode, we discuss the “Right to Housing”, what it means, what it doesn’t, and how that

right was challenged frequently throughout the pandemic. A wide-ranging and fun conversation with a

brilliant researcher that you won’t want to miss!
