PLEASE DISTRIBUTE WIDELY

Dear Colleagues, ** INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE **Centre on Housing Rights
and Evictions' (COHRE), Women's Housing Rights Programme (WHRP) would like
to INVITE you to PARTICIPATE in "EVICTIONWOMEN", a new international LIST
SERVE (an email based discussion group) devoted to the promotion of
discussion on WOMEN'S RIGHT TO HOUSING.  Using a common email address
participants in the list serve will be able to post messages about women's
housing issues that will be received by all other "subscribers" to the
list.  To our knowledge this is the first international list serve devoted
to women's housing rights and your participation will undoubtedly
contribute to its success.

EVICTIONWOMEN will focus on women's experiences of "forced eviction".
COHRE estimates that over 14 million people worldwide are currently facing
forced eviction.  Forced eviction, for the purposes of this list serve, is
the involuntary removal of individuals, families and communities from their
homes and/or lands.  Forced evictions occur in developing and developed
countries around the world and have been recognized as a "gross violation
of human rights, particularly the right to adequate housing" by the United
Nations Commission on Human Rights (Resolution 1993/77).  Forced evictions
occur for a number of reasons:  armed conflict, large scale development
projects, city beautification schemes, international events and economic
disadvantage.

EVICTIONWOMEN is intended to promote international dialogue on women's
experiences before, during and after forced eviction.  The list will
provide an opportunity for people around the world to exchange information,
experiences and strategies to address those experiences.  It is anticipated
that the list will also include discussions on other housing issues as they
affect women.

The list will run for 6 consecutive weeks and will commence on 16 October
2000 (ending 1 December 2000).  Specific issues or perspectives will be
highlighted each week or for two week sessions.

We are hoping that a diverse range of individuals and organizations will
subscribe to this list to allow for rich discussions.  We encourage you to
PARTICIPATE:

   to contribute to the documentation of women's experiences of forced
   eviction;
   to learn more about women's housing rights in other countries;
   to advance the field of economic, social and cultural rights and women's
   human rights

HOW TO PARTICIPATE?

To participate you must SUBSCRIBE to the list as follows:

1.  You must send an email message to:   listserv@listserv.utoronto.ca

2. Leave the subject line of your email message BLANK

3. In the body of the email write:  subscribe evictionwomen-l

4. You will soon receive an email from the server which says that your

INCLUDED ON THE LIST AND YOU WILL HAVE TO BEGIN THE SUBSCRIPTION PROCESS
AGAIN.

One will confirm your subscription and will say "You have been added to the
EVICTIONWOMEN-L list".  The other will be a longer letter  which starts
with "Your subscription to the EVICTIONWOMEN-L list  ... has been
accepted".  The letter will go on to describe the list serve and will
