I thank my family, my parents and my brother for having supported me during my period away from home. I thank all the people that accepted to take part in my interviews since they have been essential for my work. I thank the friends of my fraternity for having supported me during the long hours of work at home. RESUMO Meu trabalho trata do conceito de desenvolvimento comunitário e analisa projetos e organizações que atuam neste contexto. Vou me concentrar em duas questões principais de pesquisa baseadas nas 'comunidades' brasileiras como meu ‘case study’. A primeira pergunta aborda a definição de 'desenvolvimento comunitário'. Este é um tema importante relacionado às questões de desenvolvimento e, quanto à definição de desenvolvimento, recomendo que também a definição de 'desenvolvimento comunitário' seja atualizada regularmente. Darei uma definição desse conceito de acordo com as opiniões atuais de organizações que atuam nesta área, e depois compararei as diferenças nas definições de acordo com empresas que realizam projetos sociais e ONGs. Minha segunda linha de pesquisa abordará fatores que levam ONGs e empresas que se envolvem em projetos de desenvolvimento comunitário a agir em algumas áreas específicas. Realizei entrevistas com essas organizações para entender quais são os fatores que influenciam sua decisão de onde realizar seus projetos. Também neste caso irei considerar se existem diferenças em relação aos resultados no que diz respeito ao setor com e sem fins lucrativos. Algumas das perguntas que irei abordar incluem: qual é o significado de 'desenvolvimento comunitário'? por que a organização decidiu executar o projeto nesta comunidade? Qual o peso da necessidade avaliada, política ou contatos pessoais para decidir onde localizar um projeto social? Por fim, incluí um anexo como minha pesquisa acontece no período do Covid-19. Aproveitei da situação para ver como as organizações que se engajam em projetos sociais na minhas entrevistas mudaram sua forma de operar em resposta à pandemia. PALAVRAS CHAVE: desenvolvimento comunitario, localização, OSC, Covid-19, investimento social privado ABSTRACT My work deals with the concept of community development and analyzes projects and organizations which operate in this context. I will focus on two main research questions based on Brazilian ‘comunidades’ as my case study. The first question addresses the definition of ‘community development’. This is an important theme related to development issues, and, as for the definition of development, I recommend that also the definition of ‘community development’ should be regularly updated. The differential of my work is that I will consider current opinions of organizations working in this area, and then I will compare definitions of this concept according to firms carrying out social projects and NGOs1. My second research line will address factors that lead NGOs and firms which engage in community development projects to take action in some specific areas2. I carried out interviews with these organizations to understand which are the factors that influence their decision of where to undertake their projects. Also in this case I will consider whether there are differences concerning results for the profit and non-profit sector. Some of the questions I will address include: what is the meaning of 'community development'? why did the organization decided to run the project in this community? which is the weight of assessed necessity, politics or personal contacts? Finally I included an annex since my research happened in the period of Covid-19. I took advantage of the situation to see how organizations that engage in social projects that participated in my interviews changed their way to operate in response to the pandemic. KEYWORDS: community development, localization, NGO, Covid-19, private social investment 1 OSCs: Organizações da Sociedad Civil, according to Brazilian legislation 2 With ‘area’ I mean not only a particular geographic area, but also a community which respects some specific characteristics. That could be IDH index, poverty level, lack of energy, attitude of dwellers towards receiving projects from the outside, ecc… TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction .....................................................................................................................................11 Topics of research........................................................................................................................13 Community development ......................................................................................... 13 Relationship between community development, impact investment and community investment ................................................................................................................ 21 Localization choice for projects and their link with infrastructures ......................... 23 Overview of Brazilian actors involved in social projects ............................................27 Non-profit organizations: ......................................................................................... 27 For-profit organizations: ........................................................................................... 30 Government ............................................................................................................. 32 Methodology ...................................................................................................................................34 Hypothesis concerning projects’ location choice .................................................... 39 Comprehensive interview results: community development guidelines .............43 NGOs ....................................................................................................................... 43 Firms & business foundations and institutes .......................................................... 45 Results: community development definition............................................................ 47 Comprehensive interview results: factors influencing projects’ location ...........49 NGOs: ...................................................................................................................... 49 Firms & business foundations and institutes .......................................................... 51 Results: factors that influence projects’ location ..................................................... 53 Summary and analysis of results ..........................................................................................55 Conclusion and recommendations for future studies ..................................................60 Bibliography ....................................................................................................................................61 Annex: how organizations interviewed adapted their projects to Covid-19 .......71 An introduction on social projects to fight Covid-19 ................................................ 71 Comprehensive interview results: how organizations interviewed adapted their projects to Covid-19 ................................................................................................. 76 Summary of results: how organizations interviewed adapted their

A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY IREEN MUDEKA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Name of Adviser: Allen F. Isaacman, Name of Co-adviser: Helena Pohlandt McCormick October 2011 © IREEN MUDEKA Acknowledgements I owe a great debt of gratitude to many friends, colleagues and everyone who provided moral and intellectual support from the period when I started research on this dissertation until its completion. I am very thankful to all Malawian women and men in Rugare, Mufakose, Highfield and Mbare townships of Harare, Zimbabwe and to those in Mpondabwino and Mbayani townships of Zomba and Blantyre who took the time to talk to me about their personal lives. Because of their generosity, they became not just informants but my teachers, mothers, sisters and friends. In Harare, I especially want to thank Mrs. Tavhina Masongera of Rugare for going beyond sharing her life experiences with me to take me under her wing and provide a bridge between me and other women in the townships of Harare as well as of Malawi. Mrs. Masongera took the time to travel with me all the way to Malawi where she introduced me to many women who had lived in Harare during the colonial period. Without her, I would not have known where to begin as a migrant in a country that I was visiting for the very first time.

  • Informal Urbanism: the Slow Evolution of a New Form
    Informal Urbanism: The Slow Evolution of a New Form THE INFORMAL CITY One billion people live in slums worldwide.1 This accounts for a staggering one in six people globally, and the num- ber is climbing rapidly. The UN estimates that by 2030 it will be one in four people and by 2050 it will be one in three, for a total of three billion people.2 The vast major- ity of slum dwellers reported in the UN document are those living in the informal settlements of the developing world. Informal settlements vary in their characteristics, but what they have Dan Clark in common is a lack of adequate housing and even basic services such as University of Minnesota roads, clean water, and sanitation. In addition, residents often have no legal claim to the land they have built upon. Consequently, these neighborhoods develop outside the political and legal structure that defines the formal city. Existence outside these abstract organizational structures has a pro- found impact upon the spatial reality of these settlements. New construc- tion happens where and when it is needed, unconstrained by the principles of planning that regulate construction and guarantee integration of ser- vices elsewhere. In fact, the process at work in most informal settlements is a nearly perfect reversal of that at work in the formal city: buildings come first, and roads, utilities, and government follow later. How does this affect its form in comparison to the rest of the city? The building stock is normally shorter and less structurally robust. Its arrange- ment is often organic and more closely follows the terrain.

    S P R I N G 2018 URBAN REVIEW LETTER FROM THE EDITORS A magazine of the Hunter College Planning is inherently political; this is something that Hunter students know well. The Introduction Department of to Planning course has many students reading entire books on problem solving and policy analysis, Urban Affairs & Planning as we aspire to not simply write plans from afar but to affect change, using our skills as planners to SPRING ‘18 advocate within the imperfect and at times broken realm of politics. STAFF However, politics is not simply a tool to accomplish goals of planning. Planning itself is a powerful Editors in Chief political tool, one that can be used to accomplish and demonstrate political goals. A zoning change, a Aly Hassell parking limit, or a design for a park are not technical planning decisions but are pronouncements of Atara Lindenbaum priorities, of political goals, and of particular visions of space and community. Our responsibility as future planners is to probe this technical side of planning, determining its larger context. Layout and Design Editor Aly Hassell This issue of Urban Review had the privilege to feature two accomplished and active planners: Com- missioner Mitchell Silver of the NYC Parks Department and Dr. Lester King, Sustainability Planner Writers James Hull in Houston, TX. Both Silver and King emphasize the need for proper community engagement and Beatriz Gil dialogue. Vicky Garvey Ranjana Venkatesh It is time to ask, however, if this focus on process, on stakeholder engagement and communication Atara Lindenbaum suffices. Equitable planning processes may be inherently positive improvements, but our cities, our Andy Lawson Michael Kralovich people, need equitable results as well.

  • Regularización De Asentamientos Informales En América Latina
    Informe sobre Enfoque en Políticas de Suelo • Lincoln Institute of Land Policy Regularización de asentamientos informales en América Latina E d é s i o F E r n a n d E s Regularización de asentamientos informales en América Latina Edésio Fernandes Serie de Informes sobre Enfoque en Políticas de Suelo El Lincoln Institute of Land Policy publica su serie de informes “Policy Focus Report” (Enfoque en Políticas de Suelo) con el objetivo de abordar aquellos temas candentes de política pública que están en relación con el uso del suelo, los mercados del suelo y la tributación sobre la propiedad. Cada uno de estos informes está diseñado con la intención de conectar la teoría con la práctica, combinando resultados de investigación, estudios de casos y contribuciones de académicos de diversas disciplinas, así como profesionales, funcionarios de gobierno locales y ciudadanos de diversas comunidades. Sobre este informe Este informe se propone examinar la preponderancia de asentamientos informales en América Latina y analizar los dos paradigmas fundamentales entre los programas de regularización que se han venido aplicando —con resultados diversos— para mejorar las condiciones de estos asentamientos. El primero, ejemplificado por Perú, se basa en la legalización estricta de la tenencia por medio de la titulación. El segundo, que posee un enfoque mucho más amplio de regularización, es el adoptado por Brasil, el cual combina la titulación legal con la mejora de los servicios públicos, la creación de empleo y las estructuras para el apoyo comunitario. En la elaboración de este informe, el autor adopta un enfoque sociolegal para realizar este análisis en el que se pone de manifiesto que, si bien las prácticas locales varían enormemente, la mayoría de los asentamientos informales en América Latina transgrede el orden legal vigente referido al suelo en cuanto a uso, planeación, registro, edificación y tributación y, por lo tanto, plantea problemas fundamentales de legalidad.

  • The Homeless and the Right to Remain in Public Space
    RUDIN_PUBLISHERPROOF_3.28.18 .DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 4/14/18 9:16 PM “YOU CAN’T BE HERE”: THE HOMELESS AND THE RIGHT TO REMAIN IN PUBLIC SPACE DAVID RUDIN∞ ABSTRACT In cities throughout the country, homeless individuals are continuously relocated from place to place and faced with the quandary that by engaging in basic life activities they are breaking the law. Many of these individuals and their legal advocates have argued that laws prohibiting the homeless from sleeping or sitting down in public make it effectively impossible for them to exist, violating the Eighth Amendment ban on cruel and unusual punishments and the right to travel derived from the Fourteenth Amendment. However, the vast majority of courts have rejected these arguments because they do not readily fit into existing doctrines. This article argues that the Supreme Court’s decision in Obergefell v. Hodges provides a mold for homeless individuals and their advocates to recast challenges to anti-homeless ordinances and regularly-issued move-along orders into a more compelling form. In Obergefell, the Supreme Court recognized the right to same- sex marriage by looking at the confluence of several different lines of case law and allowing concerns for equality to guide its substantive due process analysis. This article follows the mode of substantive due process analysis that Obergefell endorsed and focuses on the connections between the right to movement, the Eighth Amendment, Fourth Amendment privacy concerns, the attention to inequality motivating applications of the right to travel, and the Court’s vagueness cases as they relate to vagrancy and public spaces.

  • La Problemática De Los Asentamientos Informales En La Producción Del Espacio Urbano: El Caso De Banda Del Rio Salí, Área Conurbada Del Gran San Miguel De Tucumán
    La problemática de los asentamientos informales en la producción del espacio urbano: el caso de Banda del Rio Salí, área conurbada del Gran San Miguel de Tucumán. (Tucumán- Argentina) Resumen. La informalidad urbana, es una problemática presente en Latinoamérica que se manifiesta de muy diversas maneras. La misma, es resultado de numerosos factores que difieren en cada ciudad y área metropolitana. Entre los mismos, podemos mencionar el empobrecimiento de la población, las lógicas de mercado y la acción del Estado frente a este sector. Los principales tipos de informalidad urbana en América Latina son los siguientes: a) Desde el punto de vista dominial: Ocupación directa de tierra pública o privada: asentamiento, toma; ocupación de lote individual. Dentro de este tipo de informalidad, se constituyen mercados informales. b) Desde el punto de vista de la urbanización: se ocupan tierras sin condiciones urbano ambientales para ser usadas como residenciales: inundables; contaminadas; sin infraestructura; con dificultosa accesibilidad al transporte público, centros de empleo, educación primaria, servicios primarios de salud; densidades extremas (tanto altas, que significan gran hacinamiento de personas y hogares). Este punto expuesto, se asocia directamente con la marginalidad. Argentina a lo largo de la historia manifestó la predominancia de estos asentamientos informales; en un primer momento, con políticas de erradicaciones compulsivas; luego, a partir de la década de 1980 estos asentamientos adquirieron fuerza debido al reconocimiento de derechos de los habitantes sobre el sitio ocupado. En general, en la mayoría de las ciudades del país se detecta este fenómeno de asentamientos informales – sobre todo en las áreas conurbadas – que concentran el mayor déficit habitacional.

Housing in “intramural favelas” 1 Housing in “intramural favelas” Considerations on new forms of urban expansion in contemporary times Cláudia Seldin e Juliana Canedo 1. Introduction: about housing in Brazilian favelas 1 The theme of housing, within the field of Urban Studies in Brazil, was studied for most of the 20th century in a limited or fragmented way due to the strong inheritance of the local modernist movement, in which the “act of dwelling” was seen predominantly as a function; as a simple architectural element that composed a city. For a long time, the value of formal housing that originated from plans and architectural projects was more highly regarded in the field, while informal, do-it-yourself constructions in lower-income regions, especially in the favelas1 and peripheral neighbourhoods, were often considered a problem and a disruption to the landscape by local authorities and many planning professionals. According to Silva (2001), the discussion around the importance of the favelas’ permanence emerged parallel to the official policies focusing on removing and repressing them.
