SUMMARY:

The thesis focused on urban agriculture, food security and sustainable development objectives, with the general objective of analyzing urban agriculture in the context of food security and sustainable development objectives in three municipalities in the metropolitan region of Belém. The methodology begins with visits to agricultural establishments to present the research project, facilitating the signing of the guarantee of free and informed consent. In the second phase, individual information was collected based on the questionnaire statements on a Likert scale. In the third moment, an interaction relationship was created in the work environment to collect impressions that contributed to the study, using the participant observation technique. In the fourth phase, the data was included in an electronic spreadsheet and in field reports to enable the production of the fifth and final phase, which was the statistical analysis procedure and discussion of the results found. The field visits took place from November 2023 to February 2024. The organization of producers is established through participation in three associations, an agricultural cooperative, three communities, three islands and 15 neighborhoods. Of the 120 producers interviewed, 59 were women and 61 men. The questionnaire criteria were better analyzed when combined with the use of the participant observation technique in an interaction relationship in the workplace. In the statistical stage, the criteria for data analysis and comparison begin with organization in an electronic spreadsheet and subsequently subjected to multivariate factor analysis (AFM). The analysis of variance and the Tukey test were carried out with the help of the SPSS 20 statistical program. The results show contributions of urban agriculture to food and nutritional security and indicate that it is a fundamental strategy for achieving 12 of the 17 sustainable development objectives. However, in the municipalities of Ananindeua, Belém and Marituba, despite urban agriculture offering nutritional, economic and environmental benefits to their populations, who can access different types of environmentally sustainable products, it is a fact that there is a long way to go for managers public, private sector, third sector and citizens to achieve the goals of the UN 2030 Agenda.
