The second live chat of the Renova Foundation will address the topic “Reconstruction of Villages”. Professionals from the institution working in this area, will present the work developed for the resettlement of the communities impacted by the collapse of the Fundão dam.

The communities of Bento Rodrigues, Paracatu de Baixo and Gesteira, in Minas Gerais, picked the location for the construction of the new districts through a voting process. Residents of Bento Rodrigues also approved the urban project, which seeks to preserve, to the maximum, the original characteristics of the district, especially regarding the neighborhoods.
