Ordenamento do território no distrito municipal da Catembe

Abstract

The work presented here has as main objective to analyze the current territorial ordering in the municipal district of Catembe, taking into account the urban expansion that has occurred in recent times. The methodology followed to carry out this study consisted of bibliographical and documental research and field work, which consisted of direct observation of phenomena and semi-structured interviews with some key informants in the study area. The study shows that population growth and the lack of an updated urbanization plan have a strong connection with the disorderly occupation of urban space. This dissertation is divided into five chapters. The first chapter is constituted by the introductory part, where the introduction, the problematization, the presuppositions, the objectives and the methodology used in the work are presented. The second chapter presents the literature review. The third chapter characterizes the study area, including geographic location, physical-natural and demographic aspects, economic activities, trade, social infrastructure, transport and communications. The fourth chapter addresses issues related to municipal services, the mechanisms regarding land tenure and makes reference to the forms of occupation of urban space. The conclusions are presented in chapter five.(TRADUÇAO NOSSA)
