“In general, the municipalities must be strengthened, but the problem of informal expansion is deeper. Households have no alternative. What are they going to do if they do not occupy a territory informally? There is no social housing offer that these households can access. […] It is not a question of putting a lot of control, it is absolutely insufficient. A national housing policy is needed that is coherent, broad and massive”.

Alvaro Espinoza and Ricardo Fort were speakers today at the Seminario Macro Regional Ciudades Sostenibles (Macro-Regional Seminar on Sustainable Cities), held by the Ministry of Housing Nuestras Ciudades (Our Cities) Program. Our researchers discussed their studies on the phenomenon of urban sprawl in the main cities of Peru and on the quality of public investment in vulnerable neighborhoods in Lima.
