Abstract

SILVA, Juliana Catarine Barbosa da  and  MENEZES, Jaileila de Araújo. Discussion on people who live in territories at risk. Rev. psicol. polít. [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.49, pp.504-517. ISSN 2175-1390.

The present article aims to characterize the profile of end-users of the National System for Civil Protection and Defense (SINPDEC). In Brazil, the system referred to is the government institution that concentrates interventions on risks within the context of emergencies and disasters. Qualitative methods were used, developed for the metropolitan region of Recife. The study observed 53 documents of risk evaluation and performed 15 semi-structured interviews. It was seen that those who had contact with SINDPEC were mainly female, poor and in a segment of human development below average for the city where they lived. In this sense, one observes that they are included in a process of exclusion, where access to civil defense services does not guarantee the protection of these people.

Keywords : Defense of Civilians; Risk; Safety Management; Social Inequality; Psychology.
