Miembros de los Grupos de Trabajo de Litigio Estratégico y Monitoreo están trabajando con movimientos sociales y ONG en España para apoyar sus esfuerzos por promover la implementación de los dictámenes del Comité de la ONU sobre derechos económicos, sociales y culturales (CDESC) sobre el derecho a la vivienda. Esta página contiene documentos del caso, noticias y una lista de miembros involucrados.

You will find here the main documents related to the cases:

UN Treaty Body Follow-Up

The Strategic Litigation Working Group (SLWG) has been working on strengthening implementation procedures at the UN Treaty Body System, having recently published a discussion paper on this matter.

In June 2017, the UN CESCR issued Working Methods on the Follow Up of Views, which allow for the participation of civil society organizations in the implementation process of CESCR rulings.

It is in this context that members of the SLWG and the Monitoring Working Group (MWG) are working on monitoring the implementation of cases I.D.G. and M.B.D. against Spain.
