Abstract

The objective of this study was to analyze the social and environmental issues and needs in the favela integrated by the Sol Nascente and Pôr do Sol sectors, located in Ceilândia, in the Federal District, and currently considered among the highest in Brazil. These two sectors emerged from farm allotment in the 1970s and from the selling of lands without basic services or social facilities, which the inhabitants still require. The work was based on bibliographical research about the dynamics of migration and urbanization; on documentary research to obtain institutional data and on field research, to consult the opinion of administration technicians and employees from Ceilândia and the Federal District, former residents and local merchants. The results are diverse, include information on the background of the favela concerning land occupation, socioeconomic characteristics such as income, education and paid activity of the population, as well as household types and construction and environmental urban conditions.
