Santa Marta #003
Posted: March 4th, 2010 | Author: livia | Filed under: Rio de Janeiro | No Comments »This early morning an explosion of water and mud invaded part of the community of Santa Marta, causing fear and controversy between inhabitants.
One of the last apartment-block, built during the urbanization works promoted by local government in 2005, has been evacuated because the structure has been affected by the impressive mass of water and mud.
“This building has been built on top of a tunnel where a water source was passing”, is denouncing one of the 70 occupants.
This event sharpens a debate, already animated in the favela, about quality of interventions in the community: all the buildings realized in the last urbanization works are already degraded and present important infiltrations. Inhabitants denunciate they are obliged to move from houses they built (so they function) to small apartments with no qualified public space, that besides this have important structural defects.

a practice from the bottom
This is a pill of the on-going work based on some important findings I’ve discovered during my stay in the slum.
The considerations I’m carrying on, are focusing the attention on the great socio-economic impact that URBAN AGRICULTURE is bringing among the community, especially affecting the youths.
UA is first promoted as an important livelihood strategy with the potential to contribute to food security and further is caractherized by several added values that run from the economic scale, as it is representing a source of income for many of the young dwellers of the settlement ( UN-Habitat has estimated that around 80% of the youths have no jobs, both formal and informal ones) to the social one, as it is bringing with it a corollary of activities and actions directed to benefit the whole community and strenghten the deteriorated social pattern.
I take in consideration four cases of Youth Groups involved with this activity and trough the collection of quantitative and qualitative datas on the processes they activated, I’m going to understand better the real impact UA has within the community and on the physical space, which the potentialities and weaknesses , in order to trace a guide line for a possible strategy of LOWTECH LAND RECLAMATION trough the insertion of PUBLIC SOCIAL FACILITIES and AGRO-PRODUCTIVE DEVICES.
