Avaliação da resiliência por indicadores de sustentabilidade em municípios da Bacia Hidrográfica Baixo Pardo/Grande

Population growth has created challenges in the urban environment for basic sanitation, health, education and urban mobility services. In this context, the use of indicators for the management of urban services stands out as a tool for analyzing quality of life, which motivated the proposal of 128 indicators by NBR ISO 37120:2021. The aim of this research was to assess the resilience of the Baixo Pardo/Grande Water Resources Management Unit (UGHRI 12) using sustainability indicators. The method consisted of selecting indicators with information available on a digital basis, standardizing indicators (scale 0 and 1) to assess local and regional sustainability and, finally, analyzing the potential for urban resilience based on sustainable development indicators. Thirteen indicators were selected in advance and, to identify sustainability, the arithmetic mean of the standardized values was calculated. So far, the main results show that the majority of municipalities (75.0%) have an overall score between 0.50 and 0.65, one (8.3%) is above 0.70 and two (16.7%) are below 0.50, which means that they may face the greatest challenge in tackling resilience associated with sustainability, which negates the central hypothesis. So far, the SDG with the most information available in a digital database has been SDG 6. The main contribution was to point out the local and regional scenario for achieving sustainability, in order to highlight the weak points in this river basin.
