Résumé:
Challenges of both structural and social nature, rooted in the very origin of cities, are exacerbated by outdated legislation and plans that do not effectively adapt to the real demands of society. These are often applied uniformly across the entire urban area, as if it were a single spatial unit, without taking into account the specificities of each locality. Due to Brazilian social inequality, peripheral areas, specifically informal settlements such as favelas and irregular developments, have been and continue to be the main means of urban insertion and housing access for the impoverished segment. Urban planning, urbanization, and land regularization in these areas should, in most cases, favor the improvement of living conditions for the residents of these settlements. This undergraduate thesis concerns the urban, infrastructural, and environmental conditions of the Irregular Settlement Novo Veraneio, located in the city of Arcoverde, Pernambuco. This informal settlement exhibits characteristics of precarity throughout its extent. The general objective of the thesis is to propose guidelines and actions for a multidimensional integrated intervention in Novo Veraneio. The methodological procedures carried out in the thesis included literature review, document research, characterization through diagnosis, analysis of correlates, proposal of guidelines and actions, and finally, proposals for urban interventions. Through the development of the thesis, it was possible to observe the precariousness of the settlement conditions, considering the insufficient basic infrastructure, the inadequacy of accessibility and mobility conditions, and the lack of urban and community public facilities. Based on these studies, guidelines and proposals for actions and interventions were formulated to guide an integrated intervention, addressing the studied and identified dimensions, aiming at improving habitability conditions. This includes the creation of public open spaces, urban and community facilities, housing adjustments, and basic sanitation infrastructure for the settlement.
