In 2009, Minha Casa Minha Vida was created with the aim of promoting housing in both urban and rural areas. Since its creation, the program has delivered almost 6 million units financed through the FGTS and around 1.5 million units through Faixa 1.
The program had been paused, but was resumed in February of this year by the Federal Government. However, new rules were sanctioned in July and the expectation is that 2 million units will be delivered by 2026.

On October 23, 1,651 homes from the My House My Life program were delivered in Alagoas, Bahia, Espírito Santo and São Paulo.

What does the current president say about the event?
