Abstract
In cities such as Lima, characterised by urban inequality, more than 70% of neighbourhoods are self-built or auto-constructed through the efforts and resources of inhabitants. In the absence of public investments and technical assistance, as well as housing and energy policies that support vulnerable groups, low-income communities have developed coping strategies to reduce their vulnerability and meet their everyday energy and housing needs. This policy brief captures these strategies drawing key messages for effective policies and planning to reduce poverty and carve pathways towards sustainable and just futures.
