The informal settlements that constitute a social, environmental and infrastructure problem around the water roundabouts in river bodies of smaller and larger scale; evidencing scarcity and non-existence of different public services, accentuating their condition of informality; These problems occur in different sectors of the Colombian national territory, since it is estimated that close to 14 million Colombians live in informal conditions. Taking this into account, it is observed that the communities residing in informal settlements, especially those that live near waterways, are exposed and vulnerable to climatic risks and overflows due to the flooding of these rivers, arising from the infrastructure of these populated centers, such as the case of the 15 de Mayo Settlement in the rural area of ​​the municipality of Mocoa in the department of Putumayo. The Mocoa River has experienced on different occasions strong overflows caused by the growth of its upper basin and by torrential events in the Amazon region, this generates strong infrastructure damage in the settlements, further fracturing the social dynamics that occur there, it is because of This poses an urban intervention with the principle of revitalizing fractured territories, implementing strategies that strengthen habitability, the productive and service sectors of the 15 de Mayo settlement.
