Chapter 4: Brazil Changes in the Quality of Life for People in High Risk Areas By Ronaldo Marques and Marilia Scombatti A. Country Context Brazil covers an area of 8,514,877 km 2 on the eastern side of South America. Its territory is divided into five regions: the north, northeast, south, southeast and central-west. It includes 26 states that are divided into 5,556 municipalities and one federal district, where Brazil’s capital is located (Map 4.1). Map 4.1. Regions and States Economic growth and development have generated highly unequal geographical and social conditions in different ways in the five regions: 86 percent of municipalities with the highest social exclusion indices are in the north and northeast (see the Social Exclusion Atlas of the Campinas State University and the Catholic University of São Paulo, 2006).

Urbanization and Regional Disparities According to the latest census by Brazil’s Geography and Statistics Institute (Instituto Brazileiro de Geografia e Estatística, IBGE), the population was 183,987,291 in 2007, almost double the 93 million in 1970; of these, 84 percent were urban, due to strong urbanization trends in all regions (Figure 4.1). The southeast, central west and south regions have the highest urbanization rates (with 92 percent, 86 percent and 82 percent of inhabitants in urban areas, respectively); in the north and northeast, the rates are 73.5 percent and 71.5 percent. 2. Socio-natural Disasters The three types of phenomena that trigger natural disasters in Brazil are storms— which lead to floods and mudslides—drought, and earthquakes. These phenomena differ greatly from one region to another, in type, frequency and intensity. Chapter 4 Changes in the Quality of Life for People in High Risk Areas | Brazil | 43
