SAO PAULO, BRAZIL – MAY 06: Construction at the Arena Corinthians, Sao Paulo's World Cup stadium, on May 06, 2014 in the eastern Sao Paulo district of Itaquera, Brazil. Around 2,500 families associated with Brazil's Homeless Workers' Movement live in a makeshift campsite close to Sao Paulo's World Cup stadium, in Sao Paulo, Brazil. A smaller group of young families, some with babies and small children, commandeered the private land on Saturday, and numbers have continued to grow. Many of the families are from the local area and have been forced out of their homes by rising rent prices, linked to improvements made for the World Cup, movement representative Natalia Szermeta said. The site is just four kilometers (2.5 miles) from the city's new World Cup stadium, the Arena Sao Paulo. (Ben Tavener - Anadolu Agency)
