II das Engenharias, 6201-001 Covilhã, Portugal Abstract Regeneration of informal settlements is a topic being studied worldwide. Generally, cities comprise informal settlements, and consequently sustainability problems, requiring urgent actions. Often, the solutions regarding informal settlements do not adequately consider the local features, leading to difficulties such as environmental and public health deteriorations, weakening of housing access or troubles related to economic sustainability. Additionally, some housing programs don’t fit in community characteristics of social inequalities and poverty. In this sense, this paper intends Corresponding Author: to show the results of the development of a research methodology, to carry out Ana Santos strategies and to pursuit strategies of rethinking informal housing settlements, in an [email protected] integrated and resilient way.
