Homeless to protest once again over housing during World Cup

According to Boulos, not only São Paulo but also the rest of the country should reverse the urban logic. The urban policy should not be limited to housing; it is necessary to provide residents with infrastructure: schools, transport, health care, libraries. “It’s necessary to tear down social walls. We have central districts with [good] infrastructure, and peripheral districts, where laborers are cast away, and services are precarious, and so is the structure,” Boulos stated.
