الوصف:Introduction: This article examines the life experiences of the inhabitants of the informal settlement of Martina Bustos in Liberia, Guanacaste. It explores their childhood, family background, and current circumstances in terms of education, employment, and economy, as well as their daily dynamics in a community with limited access to basic services. Objective: To highlight the communal and personal experiences of the inhabitants of the Martina Bustos informal settlement, considering social and structural conditions regarding basic rights from 1940 to 2020. Method and technique: Twelve semi-structured interviews were conducted with five men and seven women aged 26 to 83. The interviews were recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed for content. Confidentiality and anonymity were ensured through signed agreements detailing the study’s objectives and participants' rights. Results: Residents of the Martina Bustos informal settlement face challenges stemming from impoverished backgrounds, reflected in limited education, economic instability, and restricted access to basic services. Community organizations play a crucial role in mitigating these inequalities.
