Resumo: This article analyzes a sanitation universalization program in precarious urban settlements, implemented by the municipal government of Medellin, Colombia. Based on the theory of Political Ecology, it discusses aspects that enable or restrict the expansion of sanitation services to the poor population, and analyzes the experience of Bello Oriente, a settlement not served by the program, where the population, with the support of a local NGO, has managed to improve water supply conditions and mitigate geotechnical risks. The article shows that the solution developed by the community is much closer to a concept of socioenvironmental unit than the municipal urban policy, which proposes a development based on ecological urbanism, but is subject to the neoliberal model of commodification of the city.

Com base na Teoria da Ecologia Política, discute sobre os aspectos que possibilitam ou restringem a expansão do saneamento para a população pobre e analisa a experiência de Bello Oriente, um assentamento não atendido pelo programa, no qual a população, contando com o apoio de uma ONG local, conseguiu melhorar as condições do abastecimento de água e mitigar os riscos geotécnicos. O artigo mostra que a solução desenvolvida pela comunidade está muito mais próxima de um modelo de unidade socioambiental do que a política urbana municipal, que propõe um desenvolvimento baseado em urbanismo ecológico, mas está sujeito ao modelo neoliberal de mercantilização da cidade.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2020-04-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2020-480710.1590/2236-9996.2020-4807Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 22 No. 48 (2020): a metrópole e a questão ambiental; 479-498Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 22 Núm. 48 (2020): a metrópole e a questão ambiental; 479-498Cadernos Metrópole; Vol. 22 No. 48 (2020): a metrópole e a questão ambiental; 479-498Cadernos Metrópole; v. 22 n. 48 (2020): a metrópole e a questão ambiental; 479-4982236-99961517-2422reponame:Cadernos Metrópole (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporenghttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2020-4807/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/metropole/article/view/2236-9996.2020-4807/pdf_eCopyright (c) 2020 Cadernos Metrópole.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFurigo, Renata de Faria RochaSamora, Patricia RodriguesGutiérrez Tamayo, Alberto Léon2021-05-17T20:05:50Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/45814Revistahttps://revistas.pucsp.br/metropolePRIhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phpcadernosmetropole@outlook.com||cadernosmetropole@outlook.com2236-99961517-2422opendoar:2021-05-17T20:05:50Cadernos Metrópole (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
