The event is part of a series of technical workshops promoted by the Subsecretariat for Urban Development of the São Paulo State Secretariat for Urban Development and Housing. Its purpose is to discuss regulatory barriers that hinder the production of social housing in municipalities across São Paulo State, disseminate innovative methodologies for analyzing urban regulation, and present institutional capacity-building strategies to address urban inequalities and unplanned urban expansion. The activity aligns directly with the central theme of UN-Habitat’s Urban Circuit 2025, as it explores practical pathways toward fairer, more inclusive, and more sustainable cities through qualified, data-driven urban planning.
