PurposeThe aim of the paper is to document the development of prospective scenarios for the village of Porto de Galinhas for the year 2018, based on the enlargement of the industrial and portuary complex of Suape.Design/methodology/approachIn order to conceive the prospective scenarios, the following methods were used: literature research; field research, to direct observations; semi‐structured personal interviews; and, qualitative analysis of the collected data and information.FindingsThe research identified four critical factors to the future environmental sustainability of the village of Porto de Galinhas: elaboration of Ipojuca's coast support capacity study; elaboration of Ipojuca's director plan; use and occupation of the area of the old holiday home of the Governor of the State of Pernambuco, in Maracaípe; and the enlargement of the industrial and portuary complex of Suape.Practical implicationsThe following key aspects were found: creation of employment and income; industrial complexes; general infrastructure; education system; and environmental impacts. For each key‐aspect, the scenarios present forecasts that can guide the development of sustainable urban policies to Porto de Galinhas.Originality/valueBoth prospective scenarios, documented in the paper are clearly probable of practical application and, based on them, public, private and social organizations can develop policies of sustainable urbanization to the village. These will maximize the chances of the positive scenario being achieved and/or minimizing the chances of the negative scenarios happening.
O Parque Nacional do Catimbau (PNC) é uma Unidade de Conservação (UC) brasileira localizada no estado de Pernambuco. Como outras UC do País, ela enfrenta muitos desafios de gestão. Três se destacam: legislação ambiental; prática do turismo; e necessidades de aperfeiçoamentos decorrentes dos dois anteriores. O poder público — e a gestão do PNC, especialmente — enfrenta dificuldades para lidar com tais desafios, buscando equilibrar demandas conflitantes de dois grupos distintos de sujeitos — moradores do entorno do PNC (G1) e visitantes a ele (G2). Aqui, mapeiam-se as percepções de G1 e G2 acerca dos desafios mencionados, a fim de entender as consonâncias e dissonâncias de um grupo ante o outro. Para tanto, uma pesquisa qualitativa foi realizada. Seu corpus foi composto por entrevistas em profundidade concedidas pelos sujeitos dos grupos. Os principais achados sugeriram: dissonância de percepção entre os grupos quanto à legislação ambiental; falta de interesse dos moradores pela tomada de decisão afeta à gestão do PNC, sobretudo no que tange às práticas do turismo; e necessidade de decorrentes aperfeiçoamentos gerenciais, sem indicar, porém, quais eles seriam. Logo, recomenda-se a formulação de políticas públicas que atenuem demandas conflitantes existentes entre os dois grupos.
