Oh, dude, in the favelas, you can find a whole range of jobs, like street vendors, construction workers, domestic workers, and even some entrepreneurs hustling their way through. It's like a whole economy in there, just with a bit more chaos and a lot more character. So yeah, you name it, they probably do it in the favelas.
Obtaining jobs to pay for a better education is the key to this solution.
The ranchos and Favelas and growing because, people are not able to find jobs in rural areas. They usally try moving to the city to find a job but they don't succed and that leads to living in poor neighboorhoods....
The reason that there has been a growth in favelas is because more people are looking for better pay jobs or don't have any jobs and are trying to improve their quality of life. They have high hopes for when they come onto the city but then they realise that jobs are very hard to find and that the housing is too expensive for them to afford. As they don't have enough money they have no choice but to build their own home.
favelas or barrios
shantytowns in Brazil are called favelas
They are called favelas because it comes from the flower "favela" because where the favela's are built (on hills and mountains) there would be a large amount of them growing where the shanty towns are.
Ranchos are small farms where as favelas (or favelos) are shanty towns, normally found in Brazil.
Yes, many people living in favelas work, often in a variety of informal and formal jobs. They may engage in local businesses, street vending, or provide services within their communities. However, due to economic challenges and limited access to resources, job opportunities can be scarce and often underpaid. Some residents also commute to formal employment outside the favelas, facing additional challenges such as transportation and safety.
favelas
Favelas are made from any available materials, such as corrugated iron sheets, plastic, wood and even cardboard.
The future of favelas will vary depending on local government policies and social interventions. There are efforts to improve infrastructure, access to services, and promote community development in favelas to enhance the quality of life for residents. Continued efforts to address issues such as poverty, crime, and housing conditions will be key in shaping the future of favelas.
The favelas take a large area, actually. However, the houses are small and close together.
