Lecture 2 focuses on the contemporary challenges of favelas in Brazil, its inhabitants, and housing as right.
This second lecture explores a new epistemology and a new definition for slums and favelas based on the labour of its residents. The lecture begins by analysing the failures of the current planning and design strategies to house residents living in informal settlements, through several case studies. Such projects often suffer a ‘mischaracterization’ employed by the actions of resettled residents to restore the socio-economic activities that they previously performed in the informal settlements. Those changes usually happen only a few years after their relocation to the formal housing units. From the analysis of the case studies, we will understand such 're-favelization' process of housing projects in two dimensions.
