Abstract

The primary objective of this study was to analyze the influence, in the degree of social and environmental vulnerability, of the work of recognition of the real right of use with the Concession of Special Use for Housing Purposes – CUEM, in Portuguese, to the residents of Part C of the Federal University of Pará - UFPA, in Belém. This case study is related to the history of the occupation of the area of the city of Belém. At the beginning of the 20th century, urbanization and occupation of privileged spaces to the detriment of "lowland" spaces and near the floodplain. The "lowlands" were occupied by a population, mostly with socioeconomic deficiencies, forming sets of dwellings in private and public real estate, specifically, in this study, the area where the UFPA is situated today, and that is susceptible to floods and floods. To bring the rights of these occupants to justice a regularization work was carried out by UFPA, together with public entities of the state and the Union, to deliver CUEMs to beneficiaries who fulfilled the requirements of MP 2220 / 2001. Using indicators and indexes related to social, economic, legal and environmental issues (Urban Infrastructure, Human Capital, Income and Labor, Legal and Health and Environment), based on secondary data, the Socioenvironmental Vulnerability Index of the resident population in Gleba C was calculated in the years 2000 and 2010. The results show that the degree of socioenvironmental vulnerability is high both in the year 2000 (0.595) and in 2010 (0.514). In conclusion, the regularization effort carried out did not influence the reduction of the degree of vulnerability socioenvironmental of the residents and stand out solely as a patrimonial adjustment, transferring formal responsibilities of land use to the beneficiary residents and recognition of the right of this title by force of law.
