Approached at the Urban Transport Terminal, homeless Abner Luis Silva asks for more capacity in the halfway houses. Abner says he has been homeless for 15 years and goes to various places looking for shelter, but they are all full.
“I think we would need at least one more to be able to house everyone,” he says. In addition, it is worth noting that it is winter. At this time of year, demand increases and it becomes even more necessary to add a shelter for homeless people.
The testimony is part of the special Foz – 110 years section, which features exclusive content, such as special articles, polls, infographics and photo essays.
The H2FOZ report went to the streets in different parts of the city, with the intention of asking people from different backgrounds and identities what needs to be improved in Foz do Iguaçu.
