Abstract

In the growing development of cities and the existing spatial dynamics, there is a need for urban planning and housing policies, as they are fundamental for understanding the availability of housing and quality of life. The city of Caxias-MA presents a context in which such policies are crucial, given their direct impact on citizens' quality of life. In view of this, the general objective of the work is to discuss the housing policies outlined in the Caxias-MA Master Plan, considering their implementation and impact on the community. In order for this objective to be achieved, we outline specific objectives that include: a) identifying housing policies implemented or being implemented; b) highlight weaknesses in the application or absence of these policies; c) analyze the integration of urban planning with housing policies. The methodology used was bibliographic and documentary research, study and analysis of works and laws relevant to the topic. A brief history of housing policies from the first republic until the creation of the BNH was carried out. In the development of the theme there was a theoretical basis from authors such as: Bonduki (1994, 1998 and 2008); Villaça (2005 and 1999); Barbo and Shimbo (2006); Carlos (2007); Santos (2013); Ferreira (2014); between others. The research is justified by the relevance of housing issues for the city's socioeconomic development, and contributes to academic knowledge and future research. It was observed in the plan that despite the important elements and guidelines highlighted, there is a lack of clarification regarding compliance with certain policies and forecasts aimed at the participation of other sectors. In view of the research, it is concluded that there is a great need for housing policies combined with urban planning, in order to obtain decent housing and conditions for low-income citizens.
