Reflexões acerca do desenvolvimento territorial da rmb: o caso da agrovila calúcia e o plano de desenvolvimento rural e sustentável de Castanhal.

Abstract

The classic conception of territorial planning of municipalities, in general, tends to place greater emphasis on urban areas and devote less attention to the development of rural areas. However, considering a holistic and integral view of territorial planning established in the City Statute, the municipality must be understood in a way that promotes the quality of life of the population throughout its territory (including rural areas). Thus, the research on screen seeks to analyze how a legislative instrument for territorial planning allows (or not) the participation of local actors, managing to reflect on the mitigation of local problems and guarantee local development, through investigating the vision of local actors regarding connections in the creation and implementation of the Castanhal Rural and Sustainable Development Plan, especially considering the reality of the residents of Agrovila Calúcia, as it is a location located in a peri-urban area of this municipality. Furthermore, considering that the city where the research project is located is part of the Metropolitan Region of Belém (RMB), the research investigation also encompasses the challenges of metropolitan governance in the RMB, with an emphasis on the municipality of Castanhal. Finally, in methodological terms, the research is exploratory, descriptive analytical in nature, qualitative in nature and supported by the case study research method.
