Paisagismo na promoção de bem-estar: o caso da Universidade Federal do Oeste do Pará

Abstract

This study looks at landscaping as a tool for promoting well-being, with a focus on the Federal University of Western Pará - Tapajós Unit, Santarém Campus. The main objective of this research is to investigate the potential of the green spaces available at the university, specifically the Tapajós Modular Block (BMT) and Central Woods, in order to evaluate and identify elements that can contribute to the well-being of its users. The adopted methodology includes physical and field surveys encompassing detailed physical analyses and behavioral observations. The analysis reveals that these green spaces were not planned in a systemic way, resulting in the random implementation of furniture, lacking a unified vision and efficient guidelines. However, it is clear that the areas analyzed have the potential to become landscaped spaces that can effectively promote the well-being of users. In this sense, the research emphasizes the importance of drawing up development plans and coherent guidelines for improving the quality of these spaces.
