Espaço de Encontro: Cultura e Esporte no Jardim Nhanhá, Campo Grande

Abstract

Urban inequality in Brazil is marked by historical processes of exclusion and neglect by public authorities, reflected in peripheral areas that lack infrastructure, public facilities, and housing dignity. This work addresses this reality through the study of the former Nhanhá favela, located in the Piratininga neighborhood, in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, with the objective of proposing an urban intervention that promotes belonging, citizenship, and integration into the urban fabric. The proposal involves the requalification of the external area of the Guanandizão Stadium and the creation of a cultural square. Based on theoretical references and contextual surveys, the interventions seek to translate, through urban design, concepts of inclusion, permanence, and qualification of public space, transforming underused areas into more dignified, functional, and attractive spaces for the population.
