Abstract

This study aims to examine the rehousing of the gypsy community (who resided in the Barragem de Bagaúste camp) in Bairro das Alagoas (Peso da Régua), and to understand their experiences and perceptions, particularly, in following dimensions: 1) in the transition between the camp and the Social Housing Neighborhood, 2) the reception and adaptation to the Social Housing Neighborhood, 3) and the technical support (namely of social workers) in the rehousing process. This qualitative exploratory study interviewed 20 participants from the gipsy community rehoused. Findings showed, among other aspects, different feelings towards the welcoming and integration in the Social Housing Neighborhood, a high level of satisfaction in the face of new housing conditions and a recognition of the importance of technical support in the rehousing process.
