Cidades, é um problema nosso.! | Maria Paula Fontana | TEDxCentroUniversitárioFAG


good night
Good. I’m an architect and urban planner.
training but by choice only
researcher and research very
exciting because despite being a
stiff thing an exact thing she also
it’s very dynamic
there comes a time when the
research takes its own life it begins to
walk on one’s own legs and it seems
Are you there just for the night?
that are emerging
which brought me into the universe of
research was precisely urban planning
I realized that the city conditions the
The way we live the same way
that we conditioned our city
So what ‘s so important about it?
to be searched
good the UN discovered in 2010 and by
first time in the history of mankind
most people lived in
cities
That is to say Brazil also followed this
same trend and today 90% of
Brazilians live in urban areas
throughout history is a series of
attracted people to the
City
I mean, water, sewer, internet
mobile phone all this was
making this flow more and more
increase if it is estimated that today
world
basically every week cities
receive one million new residents
and then we wonder where it goes
these whole people
Good answer to that question is I
I had to understand that the relationship between
number of people in a given
area and the area of ​​that city ​​is called
density and it’s funny because
she may be the key is all
city problems
even though these problems have to do with
with those benefits I said
I mean, we have the problem today.
lack of water, the problem of sewage
transport mobility problem
public and then you should
wondering is there anything
wrong
how can urban density be the
key to solve problems created
theoretically by herself
good is researching I discovered that it is not
in the study of urban centers nothing accurate
So this is for understanding better.
this relationship I had to choose one
case study that the city of rattlesnake
Thank you the region where the city of
rattlesnake she started to be populated port
around the 30’s decade of 40
mainly by settlers who came
looking southern is better qualities
better living conditions
in the 50’s so it is mansi pada and
in the 1960s a great deal of
explosion of its growth the city
to become a member
inhabitants when there was only
four thousand and then we start to
question is what the function of the
density in this all good
It is with this growth needed
organize all this space began to be
necessary management laws that
this everything and at this moment more
precisely in the 70’s nobody
no one but jaime lerner
recently elected the second largest
bassist in the world was hired to
make the first city director plan
rattlesnake
the master plan is nothing more than a
document with a set of actions that
will guide this development
already in the 1970s in this document
angeleri he understands the question of
urban density and its importance and
he himself proposes that the
city happened along the avenue
main avenue brasil
so the intention would be to avoid
the peripheries were proven
irregular way and also optimize the whole
infrastructure that already existed in the
downtown
however unfortunately not always the
growth happens as
planned and what we have seen along
of the decades was a succession of
explosions in the urban perimeter
what do we realize that
especially in the first half of the
the 1970s this growth was very
greater and then over the years still
it has been a little more braking this
expansion continues and this is where the
element is largely responsible for
for this scenario and speculation
real estate speculation
it is nothing more than a stock of real estate
that is, a large number of
property owned by a small
number of persons whose sole function is
expect it to appreciate
What is the right time to sell at
best possible value is and with this
scenery today rattlesnake has
approximately 20 thousand urban voids 20
thousand vacant lots within the perimeter
urban city ​​without any use
you think I’m getting at is
lots of empty space and the city insists on
increase
I mean, two weeks ago, it ‘s
interestingly, a new
proposal for a new expansion
in the urban perimeter then this drawing
still going to earn a few kilometers
area squares
in this relation of urban density
urban voids what I could perceive
in my research is that the main
reflection of all this is in our pocket
jaime lerner himself said that this
series of expansions generated among others
consequences is mainly the greater
cost of infrastructure for the city and
regarding the worst is very simple if you
has a certain area populated by a
number of people
these people will share the
that infrastructure costs
now that same area populated by a
smaller number of people obviously will
become more expensive for everyone
is a quasi-logical thing but the
infrastructure is linear
when in the middle of the path is a void
this region can not skip this
urban vacuum and continue to supply
the others in the other real estate
this causes that empty ground
present as a very long distance
to be traveled to this network
to serve the entire peripheral population
and then we have the following scenario the
urban void verses of social function
of the city
but what this social function of the city
this is a guarantee through legislation
through the statute of the city and
states that through the master plan
the city has to provide for its
residents quality of life justice
and possibilities for
development
now think with me it’s a lot of voids
in the city center
still without any activity causing
that the population has to travel to
increasingly peripheral and nothing
contribution to quality of life is only
we think about how long people
of the more distant neighborhoods
public transportation that often
to get to work
which is usually in the center of the city
and this besides not having to do with
quality of life is far from
any sense of social justice
in addition, the urban voids themselves
they place themselves as obstacles to
development means we have
an area where it could be happening
any kind of activity but it is
stop just waiting for your owner
get the best moment of the market for
sell and have your best profit and there it is
a major challenge of my researches
was also to understand how the
people can leave this scenario for a
desired scenery
We already know the current scenario there
two things here are essential
The first is planning through
planning will be organized a
series of actions they will provide is
a clearer and more viable direction
for a certain desired scenario
only that planning by itself as the
People have seen years do not work miracles.
and there comes the second factor to
participation for each of those
urban perimeter expansions that
showed on the previous slides was done
a law project
the bill was approved there is what
It happens that before this bill
and protected active to be approved
finally he always passes by audiences
public
in those audiences our population year
we have the right and I would say more I
I would say that we have a duty to
participate and express and tell us
yes we agreed or not and more than
that we have the right to vote in
public hearings or without
participation no use the
planning but then we think so
It’s not my problem, right?
but people like me told the city she
conditions the way we live
so yes the city is my problem
the city is our problem and there the
big question that remains is will be that
space is lacking for more people
will be
not what we need is to think about
quality of life and social justice and
development
What is missing is that we occupy the spaces
and already exist
