The exhibition brought together sheets of different models of collective, cooperative, associative, and community property around the world, which were produced by students from the School of Architecture and Urbanism at USP.

MudA was represented by Vivian Barbour in a debate about housing in downtown São Paulo with Carmen Silva (MSTC) and Marco Gorini (Soma) at Virada da Habitação, event organized by and at IABsp. 

What are the possibilities and challenges for the implementation of public policies for social interest renting? The debate involved topics such as: rent stabilization, management of public properties for rent by non-profit entities, and rent subsidies in the private market.

A week before the meeting, the participants received a document with hypotheses for public rental policies, to be debated in the session with invited specialists.

Brazilian cities have never been able to produce effective policies to deal with the problem of tenements. Two new elements may contribute to innovations in this field: projects such as FICA/Compartilha (São Paulo) and Haja Fund (Campinas), establishing new property regimes; and the new Census of Tenements in the central region of São Paulo, which will update data and open the policy debate. In this workshop we discussed what would be the components for a tenement policy, with an initial focus on São Paulo. The document was shared with the participants 7 days before the meeting.

Managing rental properties is a challenge that requires the production of specific knowledge. In large developments, whether public or private, it is customary to provide the occupant with a manual on how to take care of the building. What should this document look like in the case of non-profit, collectively-owned apartments?

The session discussed with experts a model Resident Handbook developed by FICA. The document was distributed to the participants 7 days before the meeting.

Including volunteer work in a CSO is not simple, as it requires a prior analysis of feasibility and organization to manage this work. In this conversation, we gathered professionals who work in organizations that manage social rental properties to collectively think about a volunteering policy. The conversation started from a reference document that was prepared by FICA and previously distributed to the participants.

By registration.

Debate on the possibilities and challenges of producing fairer cities through instruments such as: the credit market, real estate financing in formats such as SPEs - Special Purpose Companies, blockchain, cryptocurrencies, real estate tokenization, securities (CRI) and ethical banking.

Workshops

Together with RUÍNA Arquitetura, the participants collectively elaborated a design strategy for the insertion of different reuse materials in order to compose the environments of the property. 

Closed to participants registered for Saturday's workshop. 

What kind of world do we create when we paint our walls and our houses? What products do we use, what impact do we have on the climate, what labor is mobilized? The workshop taught how to produce sustainable paint alternatives, based on traditional technologies and natural products, helping to reduce the cost and impacts of painting, something important for those who take care of real estate in the long term.

By registration - 20 places

The Shared House Game is an educational deck designed by Karen Steinman Martini to define the rules for sharing spaces in a playful and relaxed way. During the event participants could try out the deck, which was also for sale, in its first run.
