Socio-economic Dynamics in the Desertification Centre of Gilbués - PI

The Gilbués Desertification Centre, located in the state of Piauí, covers at least fifteen municipalities, seven of which (Gilbués, Riacho Frio, São Gonçalo do Gurguéia, Monte Alegre do Piauí, Redenção do Gurguéia, Corrente and Barreiras do Piauí) are degraded by more than 45%. The aim of the study was to identify the economic dynamics and verify the economic and social indicators in the Gilbués-PI Desertification Centre. Information was obtained from the database of the National Semi-Arid Institute (INSA), the Ministry of Science and Technology (MCTI), the Brazilian Semi-Arid Information and Knowledge Management System (SIGSAB) and the database of the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), the IBGE Automatic Retrieval System (SIDRA), with a focus on rural dynamics.
