Bom de Morar

Inter-American Development Bank

Bom de Morar is an initiative of the Municipality of Recife designed to facilitate access to urban housing for low-income families through rental subsidies. This digital tool allows you to evaluate the eligibility of families, calculate the amount of the subsidy and locate suitable properties, optimizing the selection process based on specific legal criteria. The Bom de Morar platform transforms eligibility criteria into algorithms to automate the selection of beneficiaries, improving the speed and productivity in the implementation of this social program. Its design demonstrates how the integration of various databases can increase efficiency in the management of public policies, benefiting both administrators and citizens in the housing sector.

A major obstacle in implementing social policies is effectively and clearly conveying eligibility criteria and program details to potential beneficiaries. The Bom de morar platform addresses this by prioritizing information accessibility, ensuring that a broader audience can seamlessly navigate and benefit from the program.
