Protests for Housing continue today in several cities across the country

National protests for housing rights are taking place across various cities in Portugal today, organized by civic movements. Demonstrations are scheduled in Lisbon, Porto, Aveiro, Braga, and Coimbra, demanding government action on housing issues. Protesters are calling for the repeal of a new rental law, an end to evictions without housing alternatives, and increased public housing. A peaceful vigil was held in Marvila against the eviction of a mother with two children. Organizers in Porto have denied claims of cordial communication with local authorities regarding meeting arrangements.
