Sud Santé Sociaux 69 has organized a demonstration for Thursday, October 8, starting at 6 p.m., at Place Carnot in Lyon’s 2nd arrondissement. The event aims to highlight the lack of resources in the social and social-medical sectors and to advocate for the right to housing. Social workers, medical professionals, and others in related fields are being encouraged to attend and show their support for the cause. Among the key demands are the creation of 15,000 new housing units, the continuation of support for single mothers, and the prevention of evictions from informal settlements and encampments without a viable housing alternative. These issues have become increasingly urgent as many people struggle to find stable housing and access essential services. This demonstration is part of a broader week of mobilization that began earlier in the week. On Tuesday, activists gathered in front of Villa Saint-Raphaël to voice their concerns. The protests will continue on Friday, with a planned demonstration in front of the Métropole de Lyon, followed by another event on Saturday at 11 a.m., starting from the Regional Health Agency. The series of protests reflects growing public concern over housing insecurity and the challenges faced by social and medical professionals in providing adequate care and support. The organizers hope that these demonstrations will lead to meaningful policy changes and increased resources for those in need.
