Context
A standard operating procedure (SoP) provides guidance on the processes, procedures, and steps to follow when an eviction threat is issued, and it can be used as a guide for intervening in rights violations caused by evictions and eviction notices.
Summary
The SoP approaches eviction prevention through a participatory and inclusive approach that is non-adversarial and community-based. An outline of the distinct objectives eviction prevention initiatives seeks to achieve is provided (p. 1). The process of eviction prevention and response is laid out in six steps (p. 2-3).
These include:
- Eviction threat alerts
- Escalation of alerts to the Protection Working Group
- Notification to government focal point
- Establish contact with the landowner or representatives
- Consultations and negotiations
- Facilitate relocation and tenure security support.
Each step of the process is concisely summarized, and a flow chart detailing the process is provided (p.4).
