INTRODUCTION Tent cities, camps, settlements, temporary spaces, relocation, non-citizen, guest, barricades, containers, fences, security, desert, non-fertile areas… But, home?

By looking closely at a modern day megacity like Sao Paulo , and comparing it with the cities and civilizations

I’m currently writing this letter to you to give you my thought on what might make this community much better. I’m positive that many of the people of this community would agree with the idea I have.
