Sumario:The Covid-19 pandemic reconfigured multiple areas of daily life and social relationships in all their complexity. For some people, home became a refuge; for others, in overcrowding, domestic violence and precariousness. Women in poverty were particularly affected, deploying various strategies to produce and reproduce their living conditions. This work analyzes the "Mi Pieza" housing policy as a post-pandemic strategy that, from a gender and feminism perspective, recognizes and promotes the active role of women in the design and improvement of their homes, through housing subsidies. For this, it is based on interviews with three women beneficiaries of the program, residents of popular neighborhoods of Santa Fe, Argentina. From an anthropological perspective focused on the social production of habitat and the right to the city, we seek to reflect on the housing strategies deployed by women in this particular social context, intertwined with a regional framework. In this framework, women project, women design, women decide, women inhabit.
