SUMMARY:

In the central area of Natal, members of the movement for housing MLB have been demanding inclusion in housing policies and demanding changes through urban occupation, in contrast to the history of disjointed proposals and partially implemented plans by the government for the region. The general objective of this work is to analyze how organized occupations have integrated processes of independent planning that demand the Right to Housing in the city center of Natal. Specifically, the aim is to: 1) understand the strategies of the social movement fighting for housing in Brazil; 2) to characterize the repertoire of MLB's actions in the central area of Natal and 3) to understand the achievements and difficulties faced by the occupants when participating in occupations. As partial results, it is possible to highlight that the local strategy of MLB has been designed to create strength and obtain support to dispute the inclusion of its demand in housing provision programs and the construction of infrastructure and urban equipment that serve the existing housing complexes. In this context, the mobilization of communities threatened with eviction, participation in institutional spaces, going to the streets in protests and public events and, above all, the organization of longer-term occupations are strategies that interrelate in the political dispute for the expansion of the right to housing.
