| Sumario: | This work derived from the research carried out within the Social Work Residency in the City of Buenos Aires, with the general purpose of analyzing the community care strategies implemented by social organizations in two low-income areas of the South of Buenos Aires, in two terms of the COVID-19 pandemic: March to October 2020 and October 2021 to February 2022. It was carried out from a qualitative methodological approach, of an exploratory-descriptive type, through the use of primary sources of information (interviews with representatives of social organizations) and secondary sources (newspaper articles, documents on the subject). Two low-income neighborhoods in the South of Buenos Aires City were chosen: Villa 20, in Lugano, and Villa 1-11-14, in Bajo Flores. The main results reached are: firstly, that social organizations had to reconfigure their ways of working with the outbreak of the pandemic, implementing different artisan care strategies. Secondly, that their workers recorded subjective costs as a result of the work at this stage. Lastly, that from this sector, the implemented social care policies were disputed, demanding that the State recognize them as essential. |
