Objective: To analyze proven and conceptual studies on social housing (VIS), focusing on understanding how these dwellings respond to the housing needs of vulnerable sectors, considering aspects such as quality, sustainability, accessibility and social integration.
Methodology: Narrative review based on the collection and analysis of journal articles, surveys and relevant technical documents on SIV. A mixed method with qualitative predominance is applied, including documentary reviews of regulations and historical records, as well as chronological systematization tables and statistical analysis, to assess the quality of design and other aspects of housing.
Results: The VIS play a fundamental role in providing decent housing, but face significant challenges related to construction quality, urban integration, sustainability and community participation. It was found that many homes have been built without adequate technical support, have poor interior spaces and are located in environments with social marginalization and urban disintegration.
Conclusions: The need to improve VIS with more flexible and quality solutions that consider the economic capacity of the users, encourage self-construction and progressivity, and integrate sustainable practices and resident participation to achieve a long-term positive impact on social equity and quality of life.
