In this work we analyze the popular participation role in the urban political planning and management of the city of Belem, using the “Bacia do Una Macrodrenagem” Project (Una basin macro drainage project) as reference. We also try to recognize the popular participation process in the Macrodrenagem Project, as well as its dynamics, composition, articulation, and actions, which both direct and are directed by the State; we analyze the importance and consequences of such popular participation in the Project, trying to understand the strategies of popular sectors and their eventual contribution for the project development. We try to identify whether the popular organization remains active during the conclusion stage of the physical public works, as well as the advances and difficulties regarding their inclusion in the urban political planning and management through the Una Project. The project itself was conceived in the 80’s aiming at cleaning the low parts of the city – a problem most people hoped would be solved by public administration. Basic sanitation in the area had become extremely critical for all elected governments, and they have not done much to solve the crisis, conducting only a few corrective and palliative measures, without solving major problems for the population, such as flooding, inexistent drainage systems, damaged bridges, etc. The situation elicited popular organization struggles in order to overcome such poor conditions, demanding effective action from public administration, as well as popular participation in the city management. The methodology used was bibliographic and documental research, direct observation, and field research conducted between 2004 and 2005 with 100 community organizations, distributed among 9 city districts (within the Macrodrenagem Project area), where questionnaires were answered in order to assess the insertion process as well as the importance, advances and difficulties of popular participation in the Project. The Una Project technical staff and leaders were interviewed. Some results of the data analysis showed that popular participation had an important role in the Project implementation, and intervened in the project actions through popular organization and pressure on state government. Another important result was that, in the final stage of the Project, popular organizations created a Management Council, showing the importance of past experiences with community struggles, changing mobilization strategies through popular sectors training programs, which lead them to think the city as a whole, identifying the elements where social contradictions usually emerge.

Projeto de macrodrenagem da Bacia do Una e índice de qualidade de vida de seus moradores

This thesis addresses the investigation about quality of life conditions of population resident in the area affected by Una Basin´s Macrodrainage Project (PMU). This project embraces nine neighborhoods of Belém -PA. It was developed to clean up and to recover flooded areas in the city, generating better life conditions for its inhabitants. This research aims to evaluate the effects of the cited project on inhabitant's life conditions. The methodology adopted incorporates the inhabitant’s vision about the intervention and, also, promotes a comparative analysis among the several areas reached by the project. The research identifies aspects of inhabitants‘ lives such as habitation, infrastructure, public services and accessibility conditions. The project is not completely consolidated yet; however, we already shimmered positive and negative points of the intervention. PMU didn't get to satisfy the expectations of the involved population over its execution, in spite of the abundance of financial resources, professionals' support, management and planning actions from several government spheres, besides the support of the involved entities. Several reasons handicapped the project’s aims of improving the quality of urban life of 60% of Belém`s population. Quality of life assessment was the approach adopted, through the construction of an index capable to identify and mensure the levels of lack or satisfaction of case study areas’ social needs, though the questioning on satisfaction of inhabitant’s expectations. This index was obtained trough indicators collected through semi-structured interviews in three sub areas of the project originated as informal settlements and in the Paraíso dos Pássaros, area built to shelter the inhabitants realocated for the macrodrenagem project, which received 2000 families. This investigation is important to know the real effects of official actions and public interventions, as it is the case of PMU, on inhabitants‘ living conditions of affected areas. It is expected that the proposed index will subsidize technical and political decisions about planning and urban administration for the study area and to define spacial and sectorial priorities for urban intervention, facilitating a more efficient and just public resources distribution, and favoring the sustainable improvement of quality of urban life. This work hopes to help in setting standards for decision-making, regarding to action priorities and urban investments and, specially, to the formulation of public policies to combat social exclusion.
