Integrando os objetivos de desenvolvimento sustentável na comunidade do Poço da Draga, Fortaleza, Ceará: um caminho para a sustentabilidade local

Abstract

Poço da Draga is a populational occupancy located in the Metropolitan region of Fortaleza (CE), which has just completed 117 years of history, in 2023. However, residents face some challenges in achieving local sustainability. To address issues of this type, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were designed by the United Nations, with the purpose of a more sustainable future for future generations. Therefore, the present research aimed to integrate the SDGs into the Poço da Draga community. To this end, documentary and bibliographical research was carried out, using research, articles, monographs, dissertations and theses as a basis. The research results demonstrated difficulties and lack of basic services that the community has faced since its creation, until today. We can highlight that the locality is experiencing problems with basic sanitation, social segregation, lack of safe housing, devaluation of historical space, among others. To reduce environmental and social impacts, some NGOs and Collectives focus on seeking actions that make Poço da Draga a sustainable place. This made it possible to expose the need to incorporate the SDGs in the Poço da Draga Community.
