Etnicidade, conservação ambiental e direitos territoriais em áreas de incidência de programas de desenvolvimento social e sustentável

Ribeira Valley, a region covered by the last continues area of the Atlantic Rain Forest in São Paulo State, in Brazil, is thus a preservation law and environmental control target, is now configurated as locus where emerge conflicts concerning economic and agricultural activities, particularly in places where befall public policies recognizing territorial rights – quilombo remnants, indigenous lands and sustainable development settlings.

Critérios técnicos e de participação social para a recuperação florestal: quais as diferenças na definição de áreas prioritárias?

The Jararaca River Basin suffers significative environmental impacts caused by inaccurate land use. In Brazil, the areas for permanent preservation are defined and protected by the 2012 Federal Law 12.651. These areas are located in the bank side and other specific places. The objective of this paper was to analyze the results of possible alternatives in function of different procedures used in the proposal elaboration. The methodology used was the elaboration of a priority map for the recovery of these areas using the Geographic Information System with multicriterial analyses and comparing it with the guidelines from the Jararaca River Basin Management Plan. As a result, there were identified differences in the priorities defined by technical issues from the priorities defined by public consultation process.

Análise paleogeográfica evolutiva da região do Parque Estadual da Ilha do Cardoso (PEIC), litoral sul de São Paulo, como subsídio a ações de planejamento e conservação ambiental

Cardoso Island, settled in the south of paulista region, is characterized by its ecological importance due to the great biodiversity of Mata Atlântica and for accommodating several kinds of ecosystems as mangroves, which were considered by UNESCO as human natural ownership.

A participação de Conselheiros Municipais de Saúde: solução que se transformou em problema?

A proposta de controle social instituída pela constituição abriu perspectivas para uma prática democrática ímpar no setor saúde. O Sistema Único de Saúde utiliza o Conselho Municipal de Saúde (CMS) como meio de cumprimento do princípio constitucional da participação da comunidade para assegurar o controle social sobre as ações e serviços de saúde do município. O CMS tem competência para examinar e aprovar as diretrizes da política de saúde, para que sejam alcançados seus objetivos. Ao atuar na formulação de estratégias, o Conselho pode aperfeiçoá-las, propor meios aptos para sua execução ou mesmo indicar correções de rumos. em Botucatu (SP), o CMS existe desde 1992 e nossa proposta foi analisar a participação dos conselheiros e sua representatividade. Para esse propósito, utilizamos uma abordagem qualitativa que permitisse uma aproximação e o conhecimento daquela realidade. Os resultados mostraram, entre vários aspectos, que, em média, metade dos conselheiros titulares e um terço dos suplentes comparecem às reuniões. Além de interessados, esses conselheiros trazem reivindicações ou sugestões do grupo que representam, considerando boa a repercussão dessas reivindicações, porém nem sempre obtêm respostas satisfatórias, pois algumas decisões são tomadas fora do âmbito do conselho; percebem dificuldade de integração entre os serviços de saúde; a própria organização das reuniões dificulta a participação e, muitas vezes, a reunião apenas aprova pacotes ministeriais que devem ser implementados. Ouvir os conselheiros permitiu levantar problemas que precisam ser enfrentados e, com isso, fazer avançar o processo democrático, ou seja, um desafio para a vida.
