A home in the mud

In Goiânia's periphery (Brazil) about seventy families created a settlement, called Pedro Nascimento, after being defrauded by the land owner. This one sold the same plot to several persons in a field that does not possess the basic facilities, as drinkable water or electricity. The inhabitants built houses with wood and canvas and were organized as neighborhood community. Despite the progress made, disputes between neighbors while distributing supplies and the police threat create constant tension. The absence of hygiene and the spread of diseases are the major concerns of the community.
