Post-Occupancy Evaluation by the Government of the State of Alagoas Program Small Works, Great Changes and its Continuity: Case Study in the Grota da Iraci

Abstract

The city of Maceió has an aggravating picture of people living in situations of vulnerability, living in unhealthy places without decent living conditions, due to lack of employment and / or the search for low-cost housing. This scenario has been recurring since the industrialization process in the mid-twentieth century, where since the time people who did not have the opportunity, ended up lodging in the peripheral regions, forming pockets of misery, which can be seen in the grotas of the capital. Faced with this situation, the program of the Government of the State of Alagoas, Small Works, Great Changes and its continuity, has been carrying out a work that aims to improve the infrastructure of the grotas and provide urban mobility. Thus, the objective of this work is to perform a POE in the Grota da Iraci of the city of Maceió, using the methods of data analysis referenced in this evaluation. To that end, a POE of level 01 (indicative) was carried out, which demonstrated that the state program brought significant improvements to what is proposed, such as infrastructure and mainly urban mobility for the residents but presented problems of implementation in face of the analyzed requirements which need to be corrected for greater durability in the future and especially a better constructive aspect. Residents also pointed to issues considered crucial that could be addressed by the program in the future.
