VAREA ORO, Aitor; PINHEIROI, Ana  and  ALMEIDAI, Mariana. Between practices and policies. Programme Habitar Porto. Forum Sociológico [online]. 2019, n.34, pp.61-70.  Epub Aug 04, 2021. ISSN 0872-8380.  https://doi.org/10.4000/sociologico.4820.

The article is based on the work of the programme Habitar Porto, a third sector agent that, in order to democratize access to housing production, seeks to insert the responses created in civil society within a stable institutional framework. This move from "collective" to "public" allows solutions to be sustainable over time and accessible to a majority, but it requires a constant and difficult work done between the inside and outside the institutions. Based on the reflection on the course of Habitar in the last two years, which will be framed on the work of authors who analyzed the processes of articulation and social innovation, the text will illustrate how these processes take place and will point out some opportunities and resistances that should be addressed in order to make these initiatives more effective.

Keywords : public administration; civil Society; housing policies; Porto islands.
