This research pretends to make visible the Mazatec migration that arrives to the Historic Center of Puebla (Mexico) and that mainly establish in vulnerable neighborhoods (barrios) of northeast sector, as El Refugio. They are large families with more than five children, who develop their lives in the surroundings of an old city, who live in a single room within deteriorated buildings, which occupy courtyards and collective toilets. They live situations where minors are excluded by other children and adolescents from the neighborhood due to their origin, language and physical characteristics. For abording the problem, a group of professors and students from Faculty of Architecture (BUAP) and Re Genera Espacio group (RGE), develop integration strategies through the improvement of public space, with activities that include the incorporation of furniture to realize various activities, cleaning and maintenance of common use areas, construction of a community garden and realizing recreational activities, as artistic workshops (drawing, painting and modeling) and film shows.
