Methods of Structuring Complex Problems for Defining Logistic Indicators of Vulnerability of Indigenous Peoples in the Brazilian Amazon
Objective: To present an applied study to identify and propose logistics indicators that help reduce the vulnerabilities of indigenous communities in the South and Southeast of Pará, supporting more effective public policies adapted to the local reality. Theoretical Framework: Addresses the logistical difficulties of these communities, such as geographic barriers, precarious infrastructure and limited access to essential services. Method: Research based on bibliographic review, document analysis and case study, focusing on mapping vulnerabilities and developing relevant indicators for logistics management using methods such as VFT, TOPSSIS. Results and Discussion: A conceptual model was developed with indicators such as proximity to health units and transportation routes, which allow monitoring and improving access to essential resources. Research Implications: The indicators created are useful tools for planning and implementing logistics public policies that reduce vulnerabilities and improve access to services in indigenous communities. Originality/Value: The study presents a proposal adapted to the specificities of the South and Southeast of Pará, contributing with an innovative model for future research and actions in similar regions.
