Article 25.

    * (1) Everyone has the right to a standard of 
living adequate for the health and well-being of 
himself and of his family, including food, 
clothing, housing and medical care and necessary 
social services, and the right to security in the 
event of unemployment, sickness, disability, 
widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in 
circumstances beyond his control.

The right to housing is included in several 
international legally-binding documents. Among 
the most significant of these is the 
<http://www.hrea.org/index.php?base_id=149#rights>International 
Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights 
(article 11.1), which determines that

“The States Parties to the present Covenant 
recognize the right of everyone to an adequate 
standard of living for himself and his family, 
including adequate food, clothing and housing, 
and to the continuous improvement of living conditions.”
