Although the numbers are terrible, the liberal group has heard that the play experienced by this population is beyond the rain – decades of construction neglect, lack of urban planning and territorial inequality.

Historical comparison reveals ascending risks

Over the past three years, disaster behavior in Parara has been oscillated in economic size and geographical distribution, but with a more deteriorated tendency to get worse. In 2023They are 55 affected municipalitiescom 329 thousand were affected E. R $ 581 million damage. No. Next yearThe affected number has fallen 174,7 mill And only affected municipalities 41But the Damage R has exceeded $ 3.4 billion.

Already inside 2025The data shows the largest geographical penetration and the number of affected people, which lights the warning: the disasters are becoming more, severe and comprehensive. “What we see is a direct result of climate change associated with the instability of our cities in dealing with serious events,” the legal adviser Jianlooka Alves captures Alves Federation of Federation of Municipalities of Para (Fans).

29 Municipalities in Emergency

According to the peculiar, up to AprilWere, and,, and,, and,, and,.. 29 Municipalities of Para determine the condition of an emergency or disaster state. There are cities like them AveroWere, and,, and,, and,, and,.. BelterraWere, and,, and,, and,, and,.. ForeverWere, and,, and,, and,, and,.. Alegre mountainWere, and,, and,, and,, and,.. Paruppebas E.

“The diversity of the affected municipalities shows that there is no specific area that can cause more harm, but a common structural design: bad infrastructure, irregular occupations, lack of sanitation and urban drainage,” Xianluka explained.

He points out that the areas are SoutheastWere, and,, and,, and,, and,.. SouthwestWere, and,, and,, and,, and,.. North East Para and islands of the islands He moved Was particularly affected by being in areas of Less relief Or On the banks of the riversPositive Floods.

Uraém: An image of vulnerability

The city MurmNo. Northeast of the stateLived in one of the most complex situations. With only 18,000 residents, beat the municipality Serious rains that exceed historical average at the beginning of the year. The result is devastating: the rear roads have become impassable, bridges are destroyed, houses are destroyed and rural areas are separated.

“The municipality has suffered much more rainfall than the average. We have floods, soil erosion, landslides and losses in all sectors,” said Nalwa Reese, Municipal Civil Defense Coordinator.

The day April 11The city has determined the emergency. According to the Nalwa, 12 were homeless and displaced by dozens.

“We use machinery and ambulances with the support of civil firefighters and environmental and social aid concentrations. However, this structure is dangerous and mental support for victims is not yet enough,” he said.

The state has sent civil defense technicians and begins the approval process for emergency kits. Waiting is now recognizing the situation as a federal, which allows the municipality to obtain resources from the National Calamination Fund.

Lack of preparation and late support

Para’s municipalities are one of the largest obstacles facing Trouble in accessing federal and state resources. A. BureaucracyAs a strange, making money slowly and ineffective.

“Most cities have no technical staff to fill in the necessary documents. When the appeal comes, the disaster peak has passed,” Jianlook Alves.

In addition, most municipalities still have There are no municipal risk management plansWere, and,, and,, and,, and,.. Even any teams trained to work in a quick response to preventive or disasters. “Municipalities such as Belem and Santaram can react well, but young children are facing serious problems such as lack of equipment and special staff,” he said.

Dangerous sanitation and homes intensify the crisis

In factors that contribute to the vulnerability of cities Lack of basic infrastructureSuch as rain drainage, sewage networks and safe homes.

“In most cases, cities are cut through streams or below the river level. Without drainage, any heavy rain will be disaster,” Xianluka explains.

This problem directly affects public health. According to the coordinator Nalwa Reese, Floods increase cases of local diseasesSuch as dengue, leptospirosis and intestinal viruses. “Overload immediately on the health system. Missing Medicine Shadam, access and primary care. Local teams do their best, but the scenario is beyond our ability,” he said.

Still distant elasticity: what is not?

For strange, financial resources, technical support and political will is needed to make municipalities more elastic. Some proposals that have justified the Federation:

• Direct destination of resources for slope control work and urban drainage;
• Training of local civil defense;
• Technical support of UFPA and Brazil’s geographical service for mapping of accident areas;
• Simplify inscriptions and needs for access to the National Calamity Fund;
• Emergency credit lines for reconstruction;
• Including Riverseide and Indigenous Societies in Prevention Plans.

Despite some progress, the inclusion of relief measures in municipal master plans is still slow. “Prevention is responsible for other emergency areas such as health and education. And the urban plan is still fragile in most municipalities,” Jianluka concluded.

Awaiting a liberal group Ministry of Integration and Regional Development (MIDR) And from The state government Para’s municipalities clarifications on actions that are being adopted to reduce damage.
