Prospectiva y ordenamiento urbano: mecanismo de recuperación de predios baldíos en la ciudad de Calceta

The research titled “Prospective Urban Planning: Mechanisms for the Recovery of Vacant Lots in the City of Calceta” aims to analyze strategies for recovering vacant land in Bolívar canton, with the goal of optimizing urban planning. To this end, various methods were applied, including inductive, deductive, analytical-synthetic, observational, questionnaires, and direct observation, which facilitated the understanding and analysis of the collected data. The study combined qualitative and quantitative approaches, as well as documentary-bibliographic, descriptive, and field techniques. However, low effectiveness in the recovery of developed lots was identified, resulting in the loss of emblematic spaces such as the former central market. In this context, there is a need to consider new legally permitted uses in order to achieve a comprehensive and well-founded understanding of the urban issue. Regarding current policies and regulations, a limited relationship with land recovery was observed. Nevertheless, interviews highlighted the positive impact of four consolidated “Socio Housing” projects. Additionally, the results of a survey conducted with 149 citizens revealed that 75% are fully in favor of promoting initiatives for the provision of public services. This underscores that the main challenges lie in low satisfaction with these services and limited public management.
