Access to Water and Sanitation in Sweden's Informal Roma Settlements
A 2016 report from the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law and Södertörn University found that Swedish municipalities had initiated more than 80 evictions of vulnerable EU citizens, mostly Roma, from informal settlements on the grounds of poor sanitation since 2013. As part of the report, co-authored by NuLawLab faculty director Martha F. Davis, the NuLawLab developed an interactive map displaying the evictions and relevant documents.
