Minha Casa Minha Vida One Million Completions

Every Week Brazil’s President Dilma Rousseff broadcasts her radio show ‘Café com a Presidente’ (Coffee with the President). Last week the main item was a particularly important one, affordable housing.



'Dilma' was reporting progress on the inspiring Government-sponsored ‘Minha Casa Minha Vida’ scheme ( in which EcoHouse is proud to be a major player). The target is for 3.4 million homes to be completed and delivered to people of modest means by 2014. This will make a really significant dent in the affordable housing deficit in Brazil, something that President Rousseff’s Government and its predecessor has been very concerned to achieve.

As of the end of August this year, the one million deliveries mark has been reached, an important milestone especially as, if anything that target has been reached ahead of schedule.
