Análise crítica do plano diretor de Piripiri-PI à luz da dinâmica socioambiental contemporânea

Abstract

The Municipal Master Plan (PDM) is the main instrument for organizing society within the territory it occupies. Beyond management and planning, it also serves as a tool for social and environmental control. Currently, the lack of an integrated view of humanity and nature is a global concern and is reflected in the way society has been occupying its territories, often resulting in disordered growth disconnected from regional specificities. In Brazil, the City Statute, with constitutional support, requires municipalities to develop Master Plans that ensure a sustainable and participatory environment for present and future generations. In this context, socio-environmental parameters emerge as a means of making these instruments more effective. This study analyzes the local legislation of Piripiri-PI, evaluating its Master Plan in light of federal regulations and local studies, with the aim of suggesting elements that can be parameterized to improve the municipality’s plan by integrating urban and environmental dimensions. The methodological approach is based on the parameters defined by Gonçalves (2017), as well as on a similar experience conducted by Gonçalves and Moura (2022) in other municipal contexts, adapted to the local reality in pursuit of integrated urban-environmental planning.
