Abstract: The objective of this study is to analyze the informal urban nucleus Vila Gilda, located in Santos, in the state of São Paulo, by providing a brief historical overview of its formation and the experiences of land regularization in the area, highlighting their social, urban, and environmental implications. The study employs a methodology based on bibliographic review and documentary research on the Vila Gilda dike, as well as the policies and projects implemented for land regularization in the area, drawing a parallel with the national discussion on the subject, particularly focusing on theoretical frameworks within brazilian legislation concerning land regularization. The study demonstrates the importance of historical and contextual analyses related to urban policies in the country, and the results highlight the need for constant dialogue between land regularization and urban planning to avoid the perpetuation of socio-spatial inequalities. Furthermore, it emphasizes the necessity of considering the geophysical specificities that characterize areas of environmental vulnerability.
