La Guaira state has rehabilitated 3,938 homes with non-structural damage through the recovery phase of the Venezuela Rises plan, 41 days after the seismic doublet recorded on June 24. The announcement came from Governor José Alejandro Terán during an inspection of work executed at the urban development, where he also announced the start of geotechnical studies to evaluate the construction of three new buildings destined for affected families.
According to telesurenglish.net, the intervened homes were classified with yellow habitability condition, meaning they present no structural failures but do show masonry damage requiring repair to ensure their use. The work in progress includes wall repairs, pipe replacement, electrical system overhauls, masonry restoration, building waterproofing and filtration correction.
The housing fund rehabilitation actions integrate the second stage of the Venezuela Rises plan, deployed alongside the comprehensive care provided to more than 12,000 families sheltered in 28 temporary camps enabled in the entity after the emergency.
As part of the third phase of the plan, focused on reconstruction and social development, geology specialists are conducting soil studies at the urban development to determine the technical feasibility of building three new structures. The results of the geological analyses will be delivered to the Ministry of Popular Power for Habitat and Housing to define whether the terrain allows expanding the complex’s housing capacity and providing definitive solutions to affected families.
During the tour, Governor Terán collected requests from residents interested in joining productive initiatives at the end of the recovery works. In response, the national government projects promoting entrepreneurship programs and job generation linked to the reconstruction process in the entity, maintaining rehabilitation, reconstruction, and development work simultaneously.
The Venezuela Rises plan thus advances through a comprehensive strategy that combines immediate emergency response, housing rehabilitation, and medium-term reconstruction, with La Guaira as one of the most affected regions after the seismic events of June 24.
The rehabilitation of 3,938 dwellings represents a significant milestone in the recovery process, while the geotechnical studies will determine the future expansion of the complex. The plan also seeks to generate local economic opportunities through productive projects that accompany physical reconstruction, guaranteeing that affected communities recover not only their homes but also their livelihoods.
With continuous work shifts and the participation of hundreds of workers, La Guaira advances toward the complete recovery of its housing stock and the consolidation of a reconstruction model that integrates technical rigor, social attention, and sustainable development.
