Descrição
Resumo:The informal settlement’s associated predicament must be addressed by concurrent remediation and prevention urban policies. Nevertheless, the growing social pressure to respond to the situation through decent and effective solutions, along with the scarcity of economic resources, restrict the interventions to palliative projects, with limited scope and no future vision. This thesis analyzes urban intervention experiences in Nicaragua and Latina America and the Caribbean region, contributing with proposals that facilitate the recovery of investment via a seed capital and a revolving fund, creating opportunities for new interventions through an endogenous and iterative process. Additionally, it demonstrates the streamlining of comprehensive neighborhood improvement projects, through designs that consider a city vision and synergies with other stakeholders. Finally, the research ends with a robust impact assessment of intervened neighborhoods, proving the effect of urban environment improvement on the reduction of housing deficits, becoming a more effective urban policy than a social housing supply scheme.
