Estudio de caracterización del hábitat en el borde del casco urbano de Leticia, sobre la ribera del Río Amazonas

Abstract

The present research focuses on the urban riverside strip of Leticia, on the Amazon River. The aim is to characterize the sustainable habitat, through the categorization of its integral elements, based on concepts such as: Resilience, healthy habitat and territoriality; from a sustainable approach. Positive questions are made about the technical and technocratic knowledge regarding the sense of inhabiting and the degree of eco-systemic and anthropic risk of the place. This, according to postulates of respect for the ancestral knowledges of the inhabitants in their processes of life and construction of a resilient habitat. Thus, this study promotes a healthy habitat for this territorial strip, through the incentive to reconvert the negative preconceptions, for a constructive vision and towards a revitalization of this city edge, which works as an articulating space of the city with the Amazon River, which identifies these border tri-border communities beyond the geopolitical, since Brazilian, Peruvian and Colombian groups live in Colombian territory. The conclusions and recommendations emanated from the study motivate the implementation of different strategies and management instruments, applicable to the improvement of the quality standards in the habitat, through a respectful Governance and territorial planning and participative execution processes with the community.
