#CasaYa (#HousingNow)
#CasaYa (#HousingNow) is a digital platform for reporting incidents during forced evictions of homes and neighborhoods. It is supported by a civil society organization called "Alternative City" which advocates the transformation of cities and urban spaces in all spheres of multidimensional housing based on the right to urban life with assured access to health, basic subsistence rights and housing guarantees. Furthermore, the organizations advocate a coexistence based on the democratic participation and the deliberative power of the citizens with the capacity and property to transform the city. In addition to providing a reporting platform, Alternative City also promotes the creation of inclusive and participatory management models for cities in which citizens are the engine for social and structural change.

Mode of Selection of Participants: is the innovation open to all participants, access is restricted to some kind of condition, or both methods apply?
Type of participants: those who participate are individual citizens, civil society organizations, private stakeholders or a combination of those?
Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?
