In this thesis, the object of study is the growth of increasingly intense risks and disasters, which have caused human, social, environmental and economic damage, as well as a series of concerns at the national and international levels, in favor of construction of strategies aimed at the resilience of cities due to these phenomena. It discusses global treaties, such as the Sendai Framework (2015-2030), the New Urban Agenda (2030) and legal instruments at the national and international levels, such as the principles and guidelines aimed at analyzing prevention, mitigation, preparation, response and recovery (Law No. 12,608/2012), considering public power interventions and their role with social subjects in the context of risk perception and community resilience. Challenges and obstacles regarding the construction of a resilient city are also discussed, guided by the following research question: To what extent does the Municipality of Jaboatão dos Guararapes, a city in the Metropolitan Region of Recife (RMR), in Pernambuco, have invested in Integrated Risk and Disaster Management? It is assumed that institutional and community resilience are built from subsidies related to risk and disaster governance actions and sustainable territorial management, in addition to the compatibility of structural and non-structural actions aimed at building resilience in the city. The relevance of the study is given by the elaboration in this thesis of a system of indicators to relate the degree of institutional resilience (GrResInst) to the degree of community resilience (GrResCom) and, in this way, establish the degree of resilience of the city (GrResCid) of Jaboatão of Guararapes in relation to risks and disasters. Thus, the general objective is: to analyze to what extent the Municipality of Jaboatão of Guararapes, a city in the Metropolitan Region of Recife (RMR), in Pernambuco, has invested in Integrated Risk and Disaster Management, to establish institutional and community capacity to build city resilience. The results involved data referring to 3 (three) institutional resilience indicators, with 13 (thirteen) sub-indicators and 120 (one hundred and twenty) questions, as well as about 3 (three) community resilience indicators with 6 (six) sub-indicators and 71 (seventy-one) questions, assigning, from the intersection of these data, the degree of resilience of the city. The indicators provide a better assessment of strengths and weaknesses in risk and disaster management, in addition to allowing the construction of instruments for the organization and decision-making processes regarding governance. The study demonstrated that the municipal management of Jaboatão dos Guararapes has developed strategic actions at the institutional and community levels, resulting in an average degree (2.27) in the resilience of the city and, in this sense, has sought solutions to the problems of risks and disasters that need to be addressed in the short, medium and long terms.
