A arquitetura em sua função social: Proposta de sede para a CUFA Campo Grande

Abstract

This undergraduate thesis aims to propose the architectural project for a new headquarters for CUFA Campo Grande. CUFA is a non-profit organization that assists, empowers, and gives voice to favelas of Brazil and the world. The paper analyzes the historical context of the emergence of favelas in Brazil and, subsequently, the birth of organizations and collectives aimed at improving the quality of life in these places. Through a sensitive lens, the intention is to observe how architecture can transform these areas, ensuring inclusivity, a sense of belonging, culture, and citizenship.
