UN Human Rights

I missed this because I was traveling, but evidently the UN sent a "special rapporteur" to New York to investigate human rights abuses due to inadequate housing.

I can only assume that "inadequate housing" to the UN is substantially below the level of the average Somali, or the average citizen of a Favela outside the Rapporteur's hometown in Brazil.

Or are human rights violations due to inadequate housing only possible in the US?
