Headline International Year of Shelter for the Homeless (IYSH)

Caption Description About 100 million people around the world have no home at all. As many as a billion - in cities and in rural areas - have shelter so inadequate, it endangers their health and wellbeing. These numbers are growing. To highlight the severity of the situation and galvanize efforts to remedy it, the United Nations General Assembly has declared 1987 the International Year of Shelter for the Homeless. It has called particularly for improved living conditions for the poor and disadvantaged in developing countries. With the year 2000 as a projected deadline, the UN is working with Governments, involved organizations and local people to develop, communicate and put into practice the best methods for meeting this most fundamental of human needs.
