Parques urbanos: conceitos, funções e benefícios: um estudo de caso no Parque Ambiental Vitório Piassa

Abstract

Accelerated urbanization has generated problems for the health of the population due to the lack of contact with the environment in daily life. In this way, urban parks serve as points of leisure, recreation, socialization and physical activity. This study aims to elaborate a needs program for urban parks, based on parks already established in Paraná, and from this program, to relate to the case study of the Vitória Piassa Environmental Park, located in the municipality of Pato Branco, to analyze the current state of the park and to suggest future facilities and internal buildings in the next stages of park implantation, also to correlate the needs program with the benefits generated to the affected population with the presence of green areas. At the end, a summary opinion of the results achieved and considerations about the study was made.
