Similar Experiencies
In the world, there is a large number of organisations, institutions and networks that work to demand the defence of human rights from the local realm. Over the last few years, some specific initiatives similar to the Charter-agenda have been developed and it would be advisable to take them into consideration to know the way we have come so far in the development of the right to the city. These similar experiences are the point of departure of the Global Charter-agenda for Human Rights in the city.
