Abstract

With the accelerated growth of Latin American cities during the last decades, civil construction has skyrocketed considerably. With this, an increase in the demand for social housing, especially in the middle cities due to the search of the inhabitants to improve their quality of life and comfort. However, one of the biggest consequences of this urban growth is its environmental impact and therefore the increase in the effects of climate change. The objective of the work is to compare the characteristics of social housing projects in two medium cities in Latin America (Passo Fundo and Tunja). To this end, three methodological stages were proposed: geolocation, area/cost analysis and materiality analysis, which will allow, in addition to identifying relevances and singularities, to discuss their resilience potential. The overall picture of social housing in these cities was found to be very similar to each other. Likewise, it was concluded that, among other things, from the perspective of resilience, low environmental impact materials are not being used for the construction of these homes, despite the growing attempt to achieve more sustainable projects in the region.
