Ecological and economic zoning in the PUI of fast changing frontiers in the Amazon Region, Brazil

This project examined the conceptual and methodological potential to apply Ecological-Economic Zoning to the planning of fast changing interfaces.

Sponsored by the British Council Higher Education Link, the DPU and the University of Brasilia examined the conceptual and methodological potential to apply Ecological-Economic Zoning (EEZ) to the planning of fast changing interfaces between rural and urban areas in the Brazilian Amazon region. EEZ is a tool adopted in Brazil in the mid-1980s to guide territorial and environmental planning, which focused primarily on pristine nature, ignoring the role that cities play in shaping decisions over larger regions.
