Housing is today a well-known theme in the Portuguese
political and media agenda, and in the coming years a strong public investment in this
sector is expected, within the scope of the Recovery and Resilience Plan (2021-2026), designed
to mitigate the economic and social impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The public programs that support them include the “1.º Direito” – Housing Access Support Program,
focused on situations of greater housing precariousness and vulnerability. The Local Housing
Strategies (LHS), developed by each municipality, play a central role, identifying the
situations of need and the housing solutions to implement. From a qualitative approach –
supported by the strategic documents to which we had access and through semi-structured
interviews to different coordinators responsible for their elaboration – and in light of the
"public policies field" – developed by Bourdieu –, we analyse the reality of twelve municipalities
in the mainland Portugal, sketching a general portrait of the first generation of LHS.
The restitution of part of the elaboration and operationalisation processes of these instruments
aims to contribute to a more inclusive practice, committed to the right to housing.
