This state, non-governmental body had a relevant role in the search to guarantee the satisfaction of different rights, paying attention to the particularities that the housing problem adopts at the local level.The reconstruction of conflicts as well as the action strategies deployed by the Ombudsman's Office allow to illuminate that the relevance of this body does not lie exclusively in the resolution of conflicts, but also operates in the legitimization of collective demands and of the actors plaintiffs; in the generation of work tables that allow the articulation of actors and institutions, overflowing the local level; in the implementation of a human rights approach and language to think about conflicts and thus try to unify voices, neutralize diverse positions and objectify demands; and, finally, in the possibility of registering conflicts in the public sphere and in the field of law. In order to address each of the aforementioned aspects, ethnographic situations corresponding to the field work carried out during 2019 as well as various documentary sources are recovered. El artículo recupera dos conflictos urbanos acontecidos en un barrio de la ciudad de Tandil (Buenos Aires, Argentina) con el objetivo de reflexionar respecto a las actuaciones de la Defensoría del Pueblo de la Municipalidad de Tandil. Este organismo estatal, no gubernamental, tuvo un rol relevante en la búsqueda de garantizar la satisfacción de diferentes derechos ateniendo a las particularidades que adopta la problemática habitacional a nivel local. La reconstrucción de los conflictos así como de las estrategias de acción desplegadas por la Defensoría del Pueblo permiten iluminar que la relevancia de este organismo no radica exclusivamente en la resolución de los conflictos sino que además opera en la legitimación de las demandas colectivas y de los actores demandantes; en la generación de mesas de trabajo que permiten articular actores e instituciones, desbordándose el nivel local; en la implementación de un enfoque y lenguaje de derechos humanos para pensar los conflictos y de ese modo intentar unificar voces, neutralizar posicionamientos diversos y objetivar las demandas; y, finalmente, en la posibilidad de inscribir a los conflictos en la esfera pública y en el campo del derecho. A los fines de abordar cada uno de los aspectos mencionados se recuperan situaciones etnográficas correspondientes al trabajo de campo realizado durante el año 2019 así como también fuentes documentales diversas.
