Sistema de indicadores de vulnerabilidade socioambiental e políticas públicas para espaços urbanos: uma aplicação em São Bento-PB.

Abstract

This work proposes the application of a system of social and environmental vulnerability indicators and public policies for urban spaces in the city of São Bento-PB. The study was based on the interest of identifying common points and differences in the systems evaluated, the Urban Quality of Life Index (IQVU) and the Social Vulnerability Index (IVS), as well as creating the Environmental Vulnerability Index (VAT) and Public Policy Index (IPP) to suggest the System of Social and Environmental Vulnerability Indicators and Public Policies-SIVSAPP in an intra-municipal and intra-urban analysis by planning units (neighborhoods). The main indicators were identified within their respective themes and dimensions that contributed to increase socio-environmental vulnerability, linking such indicators as the Sustainable Development Objectives (ODS) and the proposal for municipal management of the Pluriannual Plan (PPA / 2017). County. PLEAIDES 1-B satellite images were used to classify and reclassify environmental elements and obtain VAT. As a result, it was identified that the evaluated system pointed out five of the fifteen neighborhoods that deserve at the moment more attention by the municipal management in the elaboration and application of public policies. In a detailed analysis for the PPA, the Income and Land Use and Occupation aspects deserve special mention in the planning of effective policies to reduce inequalities and respect for the environment. As a conclusion, SIVSAPP emphasized the existence of issues that will require more attention on the part of public management in terms of directing policies and actions, as well as the need for the municipal planning bodies of São Bento in the construction of the PPA to proceed with the disaggregation, or or, predictions of resources for the most needy neighborhoods of public actions in the countable pieces. And as a suggestion it will be fundamental that municipal management fosters its own databases, ensures the quality of the information that will be collected by all public sectors and that storage is constant to identify the local reality, to the point of subsidizing the effectiveness of all decision-making processes.
