การรับรองและคุ้มครองสิทธิในที่อยู่อาศัยที่เพียงพอตามกฎหมายไทย / วิรัญญา ตินโนเวช = The assurance and protection of right to adequate housing in Thai laws / Wiranya Tinnovech
This Research aims to study on the protection and assurance of Right to Adequate Housing in Thai laws including Constitution, regulations and policies. It will also be compared with Malaysia and Republic of Philippines. The Research found that Right to Adequate Housing could be considered as a key component for human to have a life with dignity, and to enjoy other rights and freedom. Nevertheless, Thailand, Republic of Philippines and Malaysia haven’t upheld Right to Adequate Housing it its Constitutions, but each Country has various laws that support this Right. Three countries have placed priority on the components of this Right differently, depending on the context of each country. For Thailand, we have put priority on the access to housing of low-income population but there is no law or measure to support this Right in order to be implemented holistically. As such, the law to support Right to Adequate Housing should be promoted to support the promotion and assurance of this Right in order to consider the possibility to incorporate the Right to Adequate Housing into Thai Constitution in the future.
