SUMMARY:

The research aims to analyze, under the socio-environmental dimension, the process of land use 

and occupation of informal settlements and housing policies in protected areas and in the specific case,

the instruments of the Growth Acceleration Program (PAC) applied in the case study PAC Alvarenga ,

 in São Bernardo, located in the Billings Reservoir Hydrographic Basin – SP. 

The expansion of informal settlements in environmentally fragile areas is a reflection of social inequality 

and spatial inequality. (MARICATO, 1987, 2003; ACSERALD, 2009; ALVES, 2006.). 

And it is in areas rejected by the private real estate market and in public areas, located in devalued regions

 that the poor working population will settle: along streams, hillsides, land subject to flooding or other types of risks

where the validity of protective legislation and lack of supervision define devaluation (MARICATO, 2003). 

There is a correlation between very poor population groups with high deprivation (social vulnerability) and 

areas of risk or environmental degradation (environmental vulnerability) in the Municipality of 

São Paulo (ALVES, 2006). And this expansion of informal settlements in environmentally sensitive areas

 also ended up happening in Watersehd Protected Areas. In the specific case of the Billings Reservoir

 Hydrographic Basin, on the one hand, it is important to highlight its role in the public water supply

 of the metropolitan regions of São Paulo and Baixada Santista, 

for generating electricity and other uses such as fishing and leisure. and flood control. (ESCAMES, 2018). 

On the other hand, there are a total of 237 informal settlements in São Bernardo do Campo, 

of which 112 (41.9%) are in the urban area and 155 (58.1%) in the APRM –

 Billings (Protection and Recovery Area of Water Sources). – Billings) (DENALDI, R. et al., 2019), 

initially revealing a potential conflict of uses. The research under development has the perspective 

of understanding, under the socio-environmental dimension, to what extent the interventions of

 the Growth Acceleration Program (PAC) in the case of PAC Alvarenga in São Bernardo – SP, 

promoted improvements, based on the analysis of descriptors quantitative and 

qualitative applied to an informal settlements urbanization project.
