SILVA, Leila Marques da et al. Strategic Master Plan:. GOT [online]. 2023, n.25, pp.190-208.  Epub Mar 12, 2024. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2023.25.010.

Research Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the “Master Plan” of the city of Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil, from the perspective of Urbanism, whose good practices, when applied, outline the quality of life of the population and the development of a city.

Methodology: A literary review and documentary, descriptive and historical analysis were carried out in academic databases, online data from the City of Rio de Janeiro and other public bodies. The Master Plans (PD) of the city were consulted from 1992, the year of creation of the first PD of Rio de Janeiro. Only the PD that contemplated social and sustainable policies that provide an improvement in the quality of life were analyzed, using the following descriptors “Master Plan”, “Strategic Master Plan”, “Strategic Planning”, and elimination of articles that dealt with issues away from Urbanism.

Findings: The research showed that although the PD of the city of Rio de Janeiro may be late or poorly managed, it still presents itself as a fair, democratic and sustainable way to conduct good practices of Municipal Public Governance, serving as a tool for planning medium and long-term goals. It is worth noting that such governance, since the 19th century, has been accumulating plans, projects and urban legislation that overlap, but do not resolve the ills of a city that has witnessed rapid and disorderly growth.

Originality/Value:. In order to have a Sustainable Public Governance in the city of Rio de Janeiro, it is essential to use a Master Plan, elaborated with the principles widely presented and compiled in this study.

Keywords : Master plan; public governance; strategic plan; urbanism.
