How are investors changing the housing market and what political actions are needed to counteract it? With Leilani Farha, Global Director of The Shift and former UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Housing, joins us to discuss the financialization of housing, where homes are no longer seen primarily as places to live but as speculative financial assets.

Landlords without faces, apartments without tenants—how do we reclaim our cities? Private investors, large funds, and complex financial instruments are reshaping housing markets worldwide. What are the consequences for tenants and communities? And with developments at the European level, do we have a real chance of making housing a human right rather than just an investment opportunity?

We’ll explore practical solutions—from stronger legal regulations and social housing policies to innovative ideas like profit caps to curb speculative gains. Drawing from her work with governments, investors, and grassroots movements, Leilani will share insights on how we can push back against the commodification of housing and reclaim homes as a fundamental human right.
