Abstract
The collaborative extension project “Construction-Site School Urban Water at area of water sources" is part of a series of actions inserted in the research project "Stormwater Management in Urban Environment", which aims to develop urban alternatives to incorporate in the urban design itself, compensatory techniques of stormwater management (aimed at local absorption rather than to speed up the flow), particularly in cases of land tenure of slums, seeking for environmental recovery and improvement of public spaces. The main justification of the project is the need to develop alternative urban and environmental recovery and minimize the impact of urban occupation done informally, by self-construction, without urban infrastructure, under physical risk, in areas that are formally environmentally protected by law.
Facing the proposed of work at concrete urban context, the Construction-Site School was proposed as a collaborative activity in the Alvarenga settlements, at Sao Bernardo do Campo, at Billings watershed, which have had some previous work of some team members. In the recent project was given sequence to dialogue in the identification of cases to be treated as well as the search for technical solutions, starting from the premise of the involvement of residents and Housing, Urban Planning, Environmental Management and Urban Services Departments, to provide the exchange of knowledge and joint action.
