The Chilean government presented an eviction plan for the Cerro Centinela megatoma in San Antonio to the Valparaíso Court of Appeals, which will not begin before January 2026. The measure includes the expropriation of over 110 hectares for a housing project benefiting 90% of affected families. The decision aims to avoid a humanitarian crisis in a settlement housing over 10,000 people.
Chile's Ministry of Housing and Urbanism (Minvu) announced the expropriation of 110 out of 215 hectares at Cerro Centinela in San Antonio, land illegally occupied since 2019 by over 10,000 people. The move aims to avert a humanitarian crisis but sparks debate on the rule of law and housing planning. Experts offer opposing views on whether it legitimizes illegal takeovers or tackles structural housing shortages.
