SUMMARY:

In the 21st century, food insecurity and hunger are advancing, especially in developing countries, such as Brazil. In the year 2021 alone, about 125 million people experienced food insecurity in this tropical country. Despite being among the largest exporters of commodities and having its forests constantly being cut down, Brazil appears, once again, after years, on the UN hunger map, evidencing one of the many situations of socio-environmental injustice present in the country. On the other hand, urban areas, usually with a high population concentration, mainly in medium and large cities, commonly have idle spaces that can be used for food production, supplying part of the local demands. In order to create an alternative for the use of urban idle spaces, this work aims to present a diagnosis of social, economic and environmental feasibility of the implementation of urban gardens, with a community in the extreme south of Santa Catarina being the reference point of the study. A survey will be carried out on the environmental characteristics with the elaboration of referenced maps on the occupation of urban land in the study site. At the same time, issues related to local residents will be analyzed, in order to understand factors such as the form and quantity of waste disposal, income, schooling, employment and involvement in community life. The data collected will be processed in an electronic spreadsheet for feasibility analysis of Project implementation at the field level. In this sense, it is expected that it will be possible to create a methodology for the implementation of vegetable gardens in urban centers, taking into account social, environmental and economic aspects, in accordance with the UN's sustainable development goals, in particular, with goals 2, 11 and 12, which refer to Zero Hunger, Sustainable Cities and Communities and Responsible Consumption and Production, respectively. At the end of the research, it is intended to present the results of the feasibility analysis for the community in the extreme south of Santa Catarina.
