"Spain: A National Housing Crisis"
Cristian Acuna, 5 years old, centre, places himself under a blanket behind the table with another child of his family during the postponement of his and his family eviction and demolition their houses in Madrid, Spain, Thursday, Nov. 7, 2013. Cristian Acuna is a family member of one of the thirteen families in need who live under low hygienic and health conditions in a property they have started to occupy ten years ago. Madrid City Hall issued an order for eviction of the families, most of the member unemployed, and demolition of all the properties they have occupied and built. The families said the Madrid City Hall did not give any housing alternative and that the eviction is motivated by a project to build roads. The eviction was finally postponed with the help of the Victims' Mortgage Platform (PAH).
