The Special Rapporteur presented to the UN Human Rights Council, in 2010, a report (attached here) about the impacts of the sports mega-events on the right to housing. There are some important cases, but we need to know more.
Could you share with us more examples of this…

There is very good video documentary on the Commonwealth Games impacts in New Delhi. The games were hosted in 2010, and the right do adequate housing violations were quite intense.
The link to the video is here: [2]
Does anyone have something similar in a different host city…
