This article discusses the relations of life production in the urban setting, and its potential for teaching how to think, plan and produce health. It is a space made up of relationships of living and dwelling in it, through a system of social-economic-political values. It transcends the linearity and questions the dual opposition of home-street, inside-outside; but, it is also an exposure of social and economic vulnerabilities that put a burden on living with stigma, prejudice, and invisibility. It sheds light on the care for homeless people, which goes beyond the physical structure and the conventional standards and protocols of healthcare units. Meeting the other and living work in the act become an essential technology. It is a way of providing Collective Health and understanding the relationships of living the urban experience through the production of relational spaces of care.
