Pantanal Action presents projects and activities developed in neighborhoods located in the Tietê River basin in the eastern zone of São Paulo (Vila Nova União, Jardim Lapenna, and Jardim Helena), collectively known as the Pantanal, an area subject to periodic flooding and the subject of several public administration projects. It revisits a project initially developed by ZL Vórtice, coordinated by Nelson Brissac, now in partnership with professors from FAU and EE Mackenzie, and coordinated by Afonso Castro.
Guided tours of the three neighborhoods that make up the Pantanal area.
26/09 – New Union Village
September 30th – Helena Garden
07/10 – Lapenna Garden
During the visits, on-site exhibitions of urbanization projects developed or proposed by public administration and university researchers will be held, with the participation of architects and engineers from CDHU, Mackenzie and ArqCoop+.
The visits will be accompanied by meetings with the communities, hosted by residents' associations such as Nova União das Artes (NUA) and CDC Jardim Helena. The discussion groups will promote an exchange of experiences and integration between the Pantanal communities and the downtown occupations—Ocupação 9 Julho, with representatives from the MSTC and MMLJ—aiming to encourage inclusive decision-making processes.
