An experience of Regularization Private Urban in Brazil: the case of Terra Nova Urban Land Regularization Ltda.
Bastiaan Philip Reydon et al.
In Brazil, as in many developing countries, the uncontrolled urbanization has happened largely through informal and illegal settlements. This has resulted in a vicious circle of illegality, which all too often is powered by the discontinuity of public policy or political interests. In this article, we show the methodology and evaluate the Terra Nova Regularization Urban Ltda which is to regulate urban slums, using conflict mediation procedures. Mediation is done by creating dialogue and integration between the various actors involved in land tenure. The company promotes synergy between the sectors public, private and civil society in order to adjust and make the settlement benefits all actors, each of which performs a function to achieve the goal, which reduces public investment needs and create the conditions for a real democratic participation of the population involved, makes this unique process that is effectiveness, transparence and efficiency.
