- Thousands At Risk of Losing Their Homes in Accra, Ghana This week, WITNESS, and other land and housing rights organizations, signed a public statement demanding a stop to the planned forced eviction of thousands in Ghana’s capital city Accra.

- Interview: Activist on Root Causes of Forced Evictions in Zimbabwe My colleague Ryan Schlief and I are here in warm and sandy Dakar attending the 2011 World Social Forum along with about 75,000 other people from over 130 countries.
