ABSTRACT
This article recovers as an object of analysis one of the constitutive devices of the SELVIHP (Latin American Secretariat of Housing and Popular Habitat): the Latin American School of Habitat Self-Management (ELAH). Specifically, it seeks to analyze ELAH in terms of a strategy promoted by the Secretariat for the meeting and production of knowledge and knowledge, and as a regional integration tactic between popular organizations and resistance built from a self-managed perspective of habitat production. Based on a qualitative approach methodology, we seek to reflect on the characteristics that the School imprints on the mobility of ideas and practices that are articulated between the socio-territorial movements that are members of the SELVIHP on a regional scale, the role that this device plays in the production of situated knowledge-within the SELVIHP strategy and as an articulation of its movements- and, in particular, the strategies used to sustain the space during the context of the COVID19 pandemic in terms of appropriation of the territory of virtuality.
