In the run-up to municipal elections, the National Homeless Network has compiled a Homeless Manifesto to ensure the needs of the destitute are prioritised. Prompted by the document, Maverick Citizen took to the streets to ask homeless persons what issues they want local government to address
World Homeless Day is an opportunity to reflect on how we understand an important social issue and what action our consciences and humanity require of us.
OPINION: We believe that the demands of this National Homeless Manifesto will be good for homeless men and women, and they were developed in part in consultation with people directly affected, writes Raymond Perrier.
