“…The 1990s were characterized by deepening economic liberalization induced by the World Bank and the IMF (Basco et al ., 2009). In this context, housing issues were moved off Argentina's public agenda (di Virgilio, 2017), thereby shifting the role of government from provider of modernist housing projects to housing market enabler (Cutts and Moser, 2015).…”

Informal settlement growth in various countries has led to distinctive actions that enhance low‐income populations’ accessibility to adequate, safe and affordable housing and basic services. This trend indicates the need for comparative studies between countries and cities to understand the factors that lead to policy learning opportunities. We conducted an experimental comparison between Accra, Ghana, and Buenos Aires, Argentina, to understand, first, how policies on informal settlements have been formed, and secondly, what inquiries should be made to address housing informality in the global South. A comparison shows that these cities/countries have shared moments of neoliberalization and that their poor residents have experienced similar struggles regarding housing availability and the pursuit of extensive governmental interventions. Therefore, their experiences are worth examining. Our comparison indicates that first, Buenos Aires/Argentina has adopted more inclusive policies regarding informal dwellers than Accra/Ghana, and secondly, that diversifying housing solutions are an inevitable dynamic in cities/countries experiencing a surge in housing pressure across classes, races and geographies. In this article we articulate how the governments of these countries have dealt with these challenges and conceptualize the coproduction needs of housing informality in developing countries. We encourage policymakers facing informality in the South to respond to the questions we raise about facilitating policy learning.

“…However, authors like Sala (2018) have highlighted gaps in the existing research, including the lack of holistic, comprehensive studies that address the housing problem. These studies should encompass community participation in housing, empowerment of affected groups, and examine synergies between public and nonprofit actors (Cutts, & Moser, 2015). Consequently, only a few studies have shed light on citizen movements that advocate for housing strategies outside traditional markets (García-Lamarca, 2017).…”

Se observa que elmodelo de vivienda cooperativa de Cataluñaestá ofreciendo nuevas posibilidades parahabitar y fomentar la vivienda orientada a lacomunidad. Sin embargo, para hacer frente a losretos relacionados con la inclusión, los largosprocesos de consolidación y las barrerasfinancieras, todavía hay margen de mejora.

“…O estudo sugere que o Estado deve manter seu relevante papel no controle, monitoramento e gestão sobre o mercado de terras, e sua aliança com a sociedade civil pode representar uma oportunidade de efetivação do Direito à Cidade, fortalecendo e incentivando as capacitações dos usuários e sociedade civil organizada (KEIVANI;WERNA, 2001;CUTTS;MOSER, 2015). Tais ações representam alternativas eficazes para o mercado imobiliário formal e merecem uma análise adicional.…”
