Public policies for children in Colombia have made significant progress in this century since the promulgation of the Children and Adolescents Code in 2006. In order to promote the participation of children and teenagers in decisions that affect their lives, the State has developed various tools for the definition of policies at the municipal and departmental levels must be raised. However, the participation of children in decisions regarding their habitat has not yet succeeded in transforming some factors that limit their full enjoyment of their rights, especially for those living in urban settlements of informal origin. This article presents the final reflections of an exploratory study on the incidence of habitat conditions in the full enjoyment of the rights of children living in settlements of informal origin in Bogotá. In this sense, the emphasis is placed on three habitat conditions that are posited as factors with a high negative impact such as overcrowding in housing, urban segregation and stigmatization, in relation to the public policies that should address them.
