Great Mission Housing Venezuela

Great Mission Housing Venezuela (Spanish: Gran Misión Vivienda Venezuela, GMVV) is a program of the Venezuelan government Bolivarian missions to provide housing for people who live in precarious conditions. The program was launched by the Hugo Chávez administration in 2011 and planned to build 350,000 houses by the end of 2012. Between 2011 and 2017 the Venezuelan government built 1.3 million new homes as part the GMVV programme and in July 2023, Nicolás Maduro announced that the program had delivered 4.6 million houses.

The program has been subject to criticism due to corruption, opacity and structural deficiencies. Between 2012 and 2013, Colombian businessman Alex Saab received US$159 million from the Venezuelan government to import housing materials, but only products worth US$3 million were delivered. By 2017, there were inconsistencies in government figures about investment and there was a deficit of at least $76 billion whose destination was unknown. The same year, during the Constituent Assembly election, government officials pressured residents to participate in the process. Engineers have warned about infrastructure deterioration of program's buildings, and that houses are vulnerable in the event of an earthquake.
