Resumo
The sustainable development is one of the great objectives of the current society,
however, still of difficult reach due to several factors, and one of them refers to the intensity
of the human occupation in the last years, without the due planning and cares with the
environment. This human occupation of the territories, it has not been assuring significant
developments social, economical and institutional for all of the social sectors, in many regions
of the planet. The objective of this work is to propose an index of social-environmental
quality, which it varies from zero to one, quantifying the level of existent integration among
the variables social, economical, environmental and institutional, necessary for the sustainable
development. This proposed index was applied in the watersheds of the State of Goiás and
Federal District, showing the level of difficulty for the execution of public politics that
promote the sustainable development in those watersheds. After the resolution of several
inherent subjects to the processes of watersheds delimitation and processing of variables
social, economical, environmental and institutional in the geographical domain of watersheds,
it was found for the study area the medium value of the index of social-environmental quality
equal to 0.406, being than, this index possesses values between zero and one. This value
demonstrates the countless difficulties to be overcome in the execution of the sustainable
development in the study area. The work presents some scenarios where the environmental
variable suffers significant improvement, but the medium value of the index of socialenvironmental
quality doesn't alter a lot, being evident that the social-environmental quality,
is directly related to the improvement of the four considered variables, and no, the
improvement of only one, indicating that the development process should be accomplished in
an integrated way, considering besides the environmental subject, the subjects social,
economical and institutional
