This article analyzes the experience of the “Policarpa Salavarrieta” neighborhood between 1961 and 1970, which is located in the city of Bogotá and is emblematic in the struggles for decent housing promoted by the “Central Nacional Provivienda”. Its study allows us to analyze the birth of the housing movement in Colombia and reconstruct the initial part of its history. The violence developed in the 1950s’ rural areas, as well as the exclusion, poverty and precarious conditions in different departments, were the causes of the migration to the main cities of the country, where the absorption of this displaced population was largely done by the city of Bogotá. Starting from this hypothesis, the text is located within the social and neighborhood history with a local and regional perspective, which exposes qualitative and quantitative results to finally give a comparison between both, and thus making a more reliable approach to this social movement represented in Colombian society.
