📋 Tender Overview
Training was provided within the framework of the Accessible Housing with Own Roof campaign, which seeks to close the housing gap for people with severe disabilities.The Ministry of Housing, Construction and Sanitation (MVCS), through the General Directorate of Accessibility and Technological Development (DGADT), carried out the training Technical criteria for the construction of an accessible Social Interest Housing (VIS), aimed at technical entities qualified by the Mivivienda Fund (FMV) to participate in the Techo Propio program.
The activity is part of the Accessible Housing with Own Roof campaign, an MVCS initiative aimed at reducing the housing gap for people with severe disabilities, promoting inclusion and equal opportunities.
The objective of the training was for technical entities to know and correctly apply the technical characteristics of the construction of accessible homes, in accordance with the Own Roof Operating Regulations, ensuring that accessibility conditions are incorporated from the design and during the execution of the works.
During the session, which had the participation of 550 technical entities, the Minister of Housing, Wilder Sifuentes Quilcate, highlighted that building accessible housing is a commitment to inclusion, dignity and equal opportunities for all Peruvians.
Likewise, he highlighted that the Family Housing Bonus with Own Roof, increased by 25% for accessible housing, constitutes a concrete incentive to benefit more families that need it. This increase makes it possible to build homes with larger spaces and incorporate elements such as bathrooms with support bars and folding seats, rooms that facilitate wheelchair movement, access ramps and other accessibility conditions.
Additionally, in the training it was mentioned that the MVCS has an architectural model for the accessible distribution of Social Interest Housing, available on the Mivivienda Fund website. This model serves as a reference so that technical entities can offer potential beneficiaries housing designs that meet accessibility criteria from their planning.
With this initiative, the Ministry of Housing reaffirms its commitment to guarantee that all families, regardless of their physical abilities, can access decent, safe and functional housing, contributing to the autonomous development of people.
