SUMMARY:

This research emerges in the face of challenges to urban planning and public participation. Immediately surrounding cities, informal settlements marked by various problems arise, such as lack of sanitation, inefficient drainage, and limited supply of potable water. Studies show that minority and low-income groups disproportionately have less access to green spaces and green infrastructure. This is the situation of public calamity in Chácara Santa Luzia in Cidade Estrutural. In addition to the territorial irregularity of informal occupation in Santa Luzia, the studied region is environmentally complex and fragile, surrounded by important environmental preservation areas. In this sense, research with children, especially those in situations of risk and vulnerability, serves as excellent tools to build competencies for facing the risks they are exposed to. Therefore, considering this issue, what are the possible solutions in the field of architecture and urban planning for equitable access to nature? What are the possible methods to include children in urban planning and green urban infrastructures? Thus, this work adopts Action Research as a methodological basis to facilitate the participation of inhabitants through building trust, involvement, and reflective-transformative processes. The main objective of this research is to develop and systematize parameters to include Green Infrastructure in the city through active listening, participatory planning, and understanding the needs of children in Santa Luzia, Federal District. Starting from the principle of citizen participation in promoting Nature-Based Solutions as a tool for everyday transformation and a potential path to achieve social empowerment and the right to the city, as well as human well-being and ecosystem integrity. Additionally, it seeks to: (i) understand the limitations and potentialities of Nature-Based Solutions in the informal city; (ii) analyze and structure scientific thinking that promotes interaction between participatory planning, nature, and children; (iii) understand the emancipatory role of children in urban policy; and (iv) apply parameters (standards) for implementing green infrastructure in vulnerable territory, using the children of the Educamar project in Santa Luzia, DF as a case study. In this context, a set of possible activities was developed to include children's participation in the process of planning Green Infrastructures. This participatory process was applied with the children of the Educamar institution in Santa Luzia. As a result, this research: developed an approach with children, revealed the main issues and potentialities of the area; cataloged active listening methodologies for children that can be used in green infrastructure planning; developed standards that meet children's needs in line with biophilic design principles and green infrastructure; and provided a theoretical baseline regarding childhood, nature, and participatory planning. For this purpose, this dissertation was organized into four chapters: (i) Integrated Approaches to Green Infrastructure and Nature-Based Solutions in Promoting Environmental Justice and Children's Well-Being; (ii) Reconnecting Children with Nature; (iii) Childhood Territories; and (iv) Co-creation as a new imperative for participation in green infrastructure planning: the case of Santa Luzia
