Misión Hábitat ("Mission Habitat") is a Venezuelan Bolivarian Mission aims to construct of thousands of new housing units for the poor. The program also seeks to develop agreeable and integrated housing zones that make available a full range of social services — from education to healthcare — which likens its vision to that of New Urbanism.[1]

According to Venezuela's El Universal, Chávez promised to build 150,000 houses in 2006. In the first half of the year, 24% of the goal (35,000 houses) was fulfilled.[2] The project was continued by the Great Mission Housing Venezuela launched in 2011.[3] El Universal (July 31, 2006).
