Estrategias de intervención urbana en la periferia urbana de la ciudad de Loja, borde occidental Menfis - Ciudad Victoria

Abstract

Abstract:This research seeks to understand the social dynamics that lead to the formation of the various spatial structures, urban, rural and peripheral areas of the city of Loja; establishing the western edge of Memphis - Ciudad Victoria as a case study. The increase of areas in the urban border is of greater relevance in the territorial transformations that the cities are currently experiencing; this approach is exemplified in the city of Loja; For the specific study, the urban micro geographies have been directed, which will allow to collect, analyze, provide information and reflection on the territorial dynamics and the problems of both socio-economic, territorial, social, transport and segregation processes such as consequence of settlements or peripheral edges as is the case study. This sector analysis will structure the construction of a map of land uses and associated impacts, an analysis of the social fabric based on a series of observations and interviews developed during the field work in the study area. This analysis aims to identify the main characteristics of social groups, locate their daily activities in the spatial structure and propose intervention strategies that create scenarios of transformation that allow strengthening, articulating, unifying the peripheries and their social and spatial dynamics.
