The review of the terms used as keywords in three journals (published in Mexico and Chile) and the Brazilian meetings of regional and urban research are used to analyze the trends in housing research. Their dynamics are interpreted in the light of the general changes identified for urban and regional  research, synthesized by other authors as the emergence of new research topics and agents of urban change (civil society, participation, environment, gender) and the process of globalization (in its facets  of productive restructuration, job flexibility, social exclusion) as a general framework of analysis. It is found that the central themes of research in housing relate primarily to government action in  housing. New concerns, such as citizen participation, the environment or gender are linked to these actions as normative elements to the evaluation of programs or policies, but not as autonomous fields of study of the housing.In addition to this central concern, a significant growth of academic  production and  ome indication of the internationalization of research are mentioned

In order to present an estimation of the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) to higher education in Colombia we take advantage of the methodological approach provided by Heckman, Lochner and Todd (2005). Trying to overcome the criticism that surrounds interpretations of the education coefficient of Mincer equations as being the rate of return to investments in education we develop a more structured approach of estimation, which controls for selection bias, includes more accurate measures of labor income and the role of education costs and income taxes. Our results implied a lower rate of return than the ones found in the Colombian literature and show that the Internal Rate of Return for higher education in Colombia lies somewhere between 0.074 and 0.128. The results vary according to the year analyzed and individual’s gender. This last result reinforces considerations regarding gender discrimination in the Colombian labor market.

Este estudio exploró las propiedades psicométricas de la Prueba de Procesamiento Fonológico de Lara, Serra, Aguilar y Flórez (2005) en una muestra de 478 niños de 4 a 7 años de edad en Bogotá y Chía en varios niveles socioeconómicos. Se analizó con pruebas de dificultad, discriminación, matriz de relaciones tetracóricas, coeficiente Alfa de Cronbach y análisis de componentes principales con rotación varimax para validez de constructo. Los resultados mostraron, en conciencia fonológica, un buen rendimiento menos en cuatro ítems, correspondencia del análisis de factores con la división es subescalas y niveles, y alta confiabilidad con bajo nivel de discriminación en la subescala de memoria fonológica. Los resultados se discutieron con base en los componentes de la habilidad de procesamiento fonológico.

Este documento busca dar respuestas a los interrogantes que surgen una década después de definida la Ley 388 de Ordenamiento Territorial y el desarrollo de los programas de vivienda de interés social a nivel de las entidades territoriales. En Colombia, el proceso de descentralización ha sido visible en sectores como educación y salud, sin embargo, la vivienda no ha tenido un desempeño continuo que permita dar cuenta de la descentralización en vivienda. Esto teniendo en cuenta que aspectos como el mercado, el suelo y la voluntad política son decisivos para profundizar en este aspecto.

Actualmente, la producción de vivienda de bajo costo representa uno de los grandes retos que afrontan los gobiernos en términos de problemáticas sociales. El sector público, con la inversión del sector privado, desarrolla proyectos de vivienda a gran escala para ofrecer un considerable número de unidades habitacionales en la periferia, que reduzcan las cifras de déficit sin sacrificar los suelos urbanos con alto valor inmobiliario. En esta dinámica de producir en cantidad, cabe preguntarse, ¿La producción de vivienda social considera la calidad ofrecida? ¿Responden las soluciones a las necesidades y expectativas de la población vulnerable? La clave para responder a estos interrogantes reposa en comprender el vínculo entre las características del hábitat ofrecido y la respuesta afectiva que éste provoca en los residentes de un territorio particular; así, la satisfacción residencial se convierte en el método fundamental para lograr la comprensión integral de la calidad en los proyectos de vivienda.

QUICK CONCRETE es un emprendimiento el cual se planteó como una empresa prestadora de servicios en el sector de la construcción en la ciudad de Ibagué, Colombia. Con ayuda de empresas ya reconocidas a nivel regional como lo son: la distribuidora de materiales y ferretería La Española, A&C y la ladrillera Ladrillos Roma. Se espera impactar en el mercado con un método diferente y un precio competitivo de servicio. El mayor impulso de la construcción puede estar asociado a una mayor demanda de vivienda por parte de ciudadanos bogotanos que ven en Ibagué una posibilidad rentable para invertir en vivienda, así como también el crecimiento del comercio que requiere la construcción de centros comerciales y el programa de viviendas de interés social del Gobierno que benefició a Ibague. Sin embargo, este es una actividad bastante cíclica y con una alta rotación de trabajadores.

El presente Estudio de Caso tiene por objetivo determinar el alcance que tiene el Enfoque de Género de ACNUR, en la garantía de los derechos fundamentales de las mujeres y las niñas en el Campamento de Refugiados de Dadaab entre 1998 y 2010. La implementación del Enfoque resulta insuficiente en el proceso de defensa de los derechos de la población femenina, pues los problemas que enfrentan han aumentado a pesar de la ayuda humanitaria brindada por organizaciones internacionales. La iniciativa de ACNUR de mejorar las condiciones de las mujeres refugiadas, se materializa en el Enfoque de Género, no obstante los resultados de su aplicación no son los esperados. El carácter correlacional y analítico de la investigación responde al enfoque cualitativo utilizado, con el propósito de entender los retos que representa Dadaab en la aplicación de un proyecto internacional.

This article describes the housing policies displayed historically in B.A. that affected the processes of configuration and of giving hierarchy to the urban space. Since the process of modernization of B.A., at the end of the XIXth century, housing measures, urbanistic projects and political decisions have influenced the building of the city and the space distribution of their inhabitants: in this way, they have integrated some people and excluded others. No wonder, that, historically, popular sectors have established themselves in the South of the city (and in outskirt villages). These zones have been disregarded by the state, which has invested less in these areas. We will see how the connection between state housing policies and the population redistribution in the city, confirms the persistence of a strong process of urban and residential segregation that tends to expel the inhabitants of popular sectors and to attract the ones of the middle-class and high class sectors.

In this work we analyze the reforms carried out by the Mexican state in the nineties of the 20th century, in the items concerning the policies of housing and urban land, based on an exhaustive review of the main actions, programs and changes in the legal and institutional frame that applies for each of these fields. The nineties represent a "breaking point" in the way the State considers the satisfaction of the right to the housing and attends the offer of urbanized land for a tidy and sustainable urban development. In this period of time, the approach of direct intervention in developing and financing housing and creation of land reserves has changed into another one, ruled by the logic of the market. The balance to the first decade of the 21st century is ambiguous, as neither the housing policy has solved the housing shortage for low-income population, nor the land policy has eliminated the illegal urban growth.

The urban growth in Latino American cities, in a neoliberal context, has led to several population groups to having no possibilities to the access to urban land. Informal and irregular urban settlements increase, requiring attention from local governments, with actions and strategies in order to achieve both the regularization of such situation and further prevention. In the city of Córdoba different informal and irregular operations have taken place promoted by different actors. Furthermore, policies focused on regularization which have been promoted, have few intervention mechanisms, a fact that becomes critical, especially for the urban problems it causes. The main aim of this article is to present a classification over different modes of urban land acquirement taking place out of both urban and civil legislations. Afterwards, different informal settlement typologies are described, as well as the policies focused on them, together with their respective effects and impacts.

This paper presents an approach to the relationship between land use planning and socioeconomic residential segregation, from the location of social housing in Medellin, Colombia, during the period 2006-2011. The first part introduces the land use regulations regarding the location of social housing, identifying ambiguities in the current spatial plan. Next, we present the intersection of  regulatory information and the location of the projects that were under construction during the  study period, highlighting the need to consider the location as an important characteristic of social housing and residential segregation as a phenomenon that must be recognized and worked on land  use planning in our cities.

This article characterizes the conditions of the informal land and housing supply during the first decade of the xxi century in Bogota, regarding magnitude and location of the informal urban growth (new occupations in the periphery and informal densification of consolidated areas), housing  conditions in recent occupations and the characteristics of the land market. The situation of the  last decade has been reconstructed based in aerial photography analysis, census data quantification  and data analysis from planning and control public entities. Results suggest that due to the relative  land scarcity in Bogotá, among other aspects, the informal market dynamics have experimented changes compared to previous decades, because the growth in consolidated urban areas becomes  more important than the informal urbanization of the peripheries, but at the same time informality  transcends the municipal perimeter to the neighboring municipalities.
