O processo de ocupação da Bacia do Educandos em Manuas : história, urbanização e direito constitucional à moradia

Abstract

The dissertation analyzes the implementation of the stream sanitation program in the city of Manaus and its improvements for the most vulnerable class of the population. The housing issue is the context of this work, the lack of infrastructure, the sometimes non-existent sanitation, and the inadequate garbage collection in these areas that generates reflections on this problem. The work addresses PROSAMIM (Social and Environmental Program for the Streams of Manaus), envisioned by the state of Amazonas with the aim of replacing the houses on stilts along the city's streams with affordable apartments, also annexing public squares and leisure spaces in their surroundings to address the housing deficit and improve living conditions. Its implementation began in the city of Manaus, Amazonas state in 2003 and continues in progress in various zones of the Amazonian capital. For the analysis of the topic in this work proposal, the methodology used was bibliographic research, mainly of Amazonian authors, combined with field work with program residents, specifically community presidents and community leaders from the Educandos neighborhood, in order to record the residents' perception and their demands regarding the government program. The interviews are conversational in nature, guided by an indirect questionnaire applied freely. The result was the careful observation of how the program in question intervenes in the urban structure of the city of Manaus and directly impacts the lives of the people who live there.
