Keywords: Protected areas; Territorial dynamics; Guajará-Mirim State Park; Rondônia.
This research seeks to understand the territorial dynamics around the Guajara-Mirim State Park (PEGM), investigating the factors that drive invasions, occupations, and irregular deforestation. The methodology involves bibliographic review, documentary analysis, data from the environmental agency of the state of Rondonia as well as current environmental legislation, in addition to the use of geoprocessing tools and satellite images for observations and analysis. It is expected that the results will contribute to a deeper understanding of the challenges in managing protected areas, providing support for more effective and sustainable actions to combat illegal occupations. In summary, the study seeks not only to diagnose the problems but also to propose actions that can curb environmental crimes.
