Desenvolvimento sustentável no Semiárido Brasileiro: um enfoque na infraestrutura

Abstract

This study aimed to identify solutions to promote the sustainable development of the Brazilian semiarid region, with the increase of infrastructure, in order to generate well-being for the population and integrate the region's economy, resulting in the rise of socioeconomic indicators to the average level of the Brazilian economy. To achieve this goal, we sought to understand the current situation of the Brazilian semiarid region through bibliographic research based on policies, legislation, official documents available for access, books, articles and academic papers. From this data and information survey, we sought to establish a correlation between investment in infrastructure, with emphasis on water, energy and transport infrastructure, sustainable development and the impacts generated on the socioeconomic indicators in question. The studies pointed out greater potential for sustainable development, with significant improvements in socioeconomic indicators, from the priority and integrated investment in water, energy and transport infrastructure listed and suggested for the Brazilian Semiarid Region.
