Cotijuba island, located in the municipality of Belém (PA), is a place
that translates Amazonian specificities, of precarious and incomplete
urbanization, living with nature management practices. Through
direct contact with local reality, it is noted that the territorial policies
proposed for the island are insufficient and inadequate. In particular,
the regulation for urban occupation is based on instruments
disseminated nationally for urban planning, without accounting for
the planning of the entire municipal territory and the need for
articulation with environmental aspects. The island is therefore a
suitable place for a more sensitive territorial planning exercise,
which seeks to include the diversity of spatial arrangements and
lifestyles, and propose measures to encourage the potential existing
within the municipality of Belém, especially in its riverside reality.
The present work then seeks to analyze the socio-spatial and socioenvironmental reality of Cotijuba Island, encompassing the residents'
view, in order to propose a sectorization consistent with the local
reality.
