Convention on the Use of Space
4:00 PM – 7:00 PM @ Tenderpixel, 8 Cecil Court, WC2N 4HE, London, United Kingdom
The ‘Convention on the Use of Space’ is a legal instrument publicly drafted between March and May 2015 through IRL meetings in the Netherlands as a response to the housing crisis: the lack of affordable homes, absence of provisions for those without legal right to stay, rising rents, and the criminalisation of squatting. In reading the document we will analyse what the convention’s claims are and how it could be used / adapted to a UK context.
