A Roof for Chile - Intervention in Slums
"A Roof for Chile - Intervention in Campamentos" (slums) is the central project promoted by the civil society organization "TECHO" in Chile. With the ultimate aim of ensuring that people in vulnerable situations who live in slums become part of integrated cities where they have full access to basic rights, TECHO carries out the mentioned project, which is divided into several stages. First a participatory diagnosis is elaborated upon where the community is contextualized and the organization, participation and co-responsibility of all families are promoted from the beginning. After that, a Working Group is created. From this Working Group, a democratic movement led by social leaders with the participation of volunteers of the organization through which the planning, execution and evaluation of actions carried out under the program are promoted.
