This is an e-book that explore different ways that can be used in Canada to end with a problem that happens in every country, an it´s really important to our invertigation because we learn about what other countries do and what can be applied to Mexico.

“The plight of the urban poor in Mexico has changed little since World War II, despite the country's impressive rate of economic growth. Susan Eckstein considers how market forces and state policies that were ostensibly designed to help the poor have served to maintain their poverty. She draws on intensive research in a center city slum, a squatter settlement, and a low-cost housing development.”  Eckstein, S. (1997). The Poverty of Revolution: The State and the Urban Poor in Mexico. (pp 382). California: Princeton University Press

Mexico’s amazingly vivid history goes back as far as 40,000 years according to some archaeologists. Five different civilizations thrived in the region. By today’s standards, some of these civilizations weren’t so civilized. While Mexico boasts a rich legacy of many cultures, it also carries a past filled with conflict, tribal warfare, and foreign invasion. An unfortunate remnant of Mexico’s history of conquest is the mark of poverty, particularly among many remote indigenous villages. An estimated 44 million people live in poverty in Mexico. Of those, 14 million live in extreme poverty -less than US $1.90 a day. Some of the indigenous people that CHOICE is currently working with are the Huichol, the Mazahuas, the Otomi, and the Tarahumara people. These native Mexicans are rich in culture, tradition, and language, but unfortunately, in recent years have been marginalized and discriminated by urban populations of Mexico. more

This is a tourney in which homeless people or in really vulnerable situations have an opportunity of having a better life.

Later after Homex didn’t respond to their responsibilities to the Mexican people. They just had this to say.

The project that Jung is presenting, is another solution to our main problems that we explained in other posts, it's that Mexicans can afford a real and a decent place to live. As Jungs says " Our mission is to help people access credit and affordable housing. This is accomplished at the community level, bringing neighbors together through savings & credit programs & aiding in the construction of each other’s homes. These efforts foster accountability & unity, providing pride of ownership not only in each family’s new home, but also in the investment they have made in the greater community."  As we can see this solution is not only based on the help people can offer to others, it's more about a self help, to grow and  maintain a stable way of living.
