(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014) SILVA, Iria Maria Pádua da; FENZL, Norbert
Parks are of great importance for society in general, and maintaining a protected area in an urban area is synonymous with quality of life for the population, which is already recognized in the environmental field. This work aims to understand the challenges of managing a conservation unit and its relationship with the community; collect data on the park manager’s actions concerning preservation; and investigate the operation of the park within the urban perimeter of Manaus, the capital of the State of Amazonas. It intends to investigate and compare indicators such as surrounding residents, visitors, and employees, demonstrate the importance of a protected area for the city’s population, providing information with a view to strengthening the debate for further research concerning the social and environmental importance of a protected area in urban areas, with the main focus of the study being the Mindu Municipal Park itself. The treatment of each indicator, community, employees, visitors, and manager makes clear the seriousness of the research and the accuracy of the results. As a result, there is a committed team, a manager who uses the appropriate management tools and applies them clearly and defined in team activities, leading this unit to serve as a model for other protected areas in the city of Manaus.
