Ecobarrio Las Palma: Desarrollo urbano y de vivienda a partir de la resiliencia ambiental

Abstract

For years, the main cities in Colombia have been affected by the migration of the population from rural origin, as victims of displacement and socioeconomic marginalization, which were the main causes that led these communities to locate in uninhabitable sectors of the city, which generated occupations on land unsuitable for these settlements. The case of Bogotá is a clear example of this, as it shows the development of informal settlements located in natural areas that are unregulated and lack optimal living conditions. The sector of the Las Palmas neighborhood is located in the northwest of the town of Engativá UPZ (29) Minuto de Dios, with access from the Avenida Ciudad de Cali and Transversal 73ª, with the privilege of being close to the Minuto de Dios University, as well as the school and theater and the Museum of Contemporary Art. An urban renovation is proposed in the sector of the Las Palmas neighborhood, implementing the principles of an eco-neighborhood, with the purpose of promoting sustainable urban architecture; in order to achieve through the integration of ecological agriculture and renewable energies the natural use as a main objective.
