VIRGILIO, María Mercedes Di. PARTICIPACIÓN SOCIAL Y GESTIÓN DEL HÁBITAT: FORMAS Y TIPOS DE PARTICIPACIÓN EN LA EXPERIENCIA DE AMÉRICA LATINA. Postdata [online]. 2021, vol.26, n.1, pp.11-46. ISSN 1851-9601.

The Nueva Agenda Urbana commits countries to the implementation of housing policies that incorporate participatory planning. The proposal proposes the participation of the populations in the management of urban infrastructures and services, promoting their involvement in inclusive urban policies and promoting sustainable urban and territorial development. Inparticular, it promotes participation in habitat management processes and in the implementation of public policies oriented to the sector. In this framework, the work reflects on the challenges that these guidelines pose for the processes of housing production (in particular, that destined to the lower-income sectors) and of habitat management in the cities of Latin America and the Caribbean. To do this, it asks what are the forms of participation that can be observed in the popular habitat management processes? What participation scenarios are configured around popular habitat management in Latin American countries?

How do these scenarios favor (or not) the effective involvement of communities in habitatmanagement? It is adescriptive study that is based on the bibliographic review of works published in national and international journals and in books in the area of public policy and urban planning. The work with the bibliography was articulated with the results of own investigations that had and / or have habitat production policies as a privileged object of analysis. The analytical strategy was supported by the recovery of cases documented in the publications, based on which typical habitat management scenarios that incorporate participatory components were reconstructed. The mention of experiences from countries such as Argentina, Chile, Ecuador or Mexico is due to the recurrence with which they are treated in the bibliography. In this way, it seeks to account for the features and characteristics that define the logics of participation, investigating the forms and degrees of involvement of the different actors in the implementation of public policies.
