This Lawn Sign, This Home is Protected by Human Rights Law, is created for display at homeless encampments. It can serve to remind state officials, bylaw officers, and the general public that encampment residents are protected under human rights law. The QR Code links to the National Protocol.

Through this project, The Shift, in partnership with Open Society Justice Initiative and other human rights defenders, are urging governments around the world to use the basic legal provisions outlined in the model legislation to prompt and guide the development of domestic laws to ensure access to housing for all.
