description Public spaces belonging to the Petare Parish, of the Sucre Municipality, in the Region Capi­tal Venezuela, have been invaded by informal trade, affecting the quality of the urban envi­ronment. The objective of this research was to prospectively identify factors of the urban environmental management, to rescue Petare metro station from the perspective of sustainable development. To this end, 28 brainstor­ming meetings were held with representatives of different social groups (80 people) that live in the public space studied. First, eight meetings were held to identify the 35 most influential factors from the perspective of the participants. From based on these factors, a survey was conducted on site (Petare metro station) with 575 participants, to identify the direct influence of each of the actors in the problem. During 10 meetings, held according to the survey results, and applying Pareto te­chnique to assess direct classification, the 16 most influential factors were obtained. In the last ten meetings, prospective methods were used to identify the hidden influential varia­bles for the development of a recovery plan for the site. Results indicated that healthy social interaction and informal trade restriction are potential target variables that allowed the ge­neration of a feasible short and medium term management plan, sustainable over time, in sound governance of space. The most striking conclusion was that citizen participation ai­med at recognizing the variable environment, allows the identification of influential factors of urban management in public spaces that for different reasons have been violated with acti­vities that do not correspond to their function as part of the urban context.

Los espacios públicos pertenecientes a la Parro­quia Petare, del Municipio Sucre, Región Capital Venezuela, han sido invadidos por el comercio informal, afectando la calidad del ambiente urrbano. El objetivo de esta investigación fue identificar prospectivamente, factores de la gestión ambiental urbana para el rescate de la estación de metro Petare desde el enfoque del desarrollo sostenible. Para ello, se realizaron 28 reuniones de tormenta de ideas con los representantes de los diferentes grupos sociales (80 ciudadanos) que hacen vida en el espacio público estudiado. Primero, se llevaron a cabo 8 reuniones, donde se identificaron los 35 factores de mayor influen­cia desde la perspectiva de los participantes. A partir de estos factores se realizaron 575 en­cuestas en sitio (estación de metro Petare) para establecer la influencia directa de cada uno de los actores en la problemática. Durante 10 reunio­nes realizadas, de acuerdo a los resultados de las encuestas, y aplicando la Técnica de Pareto para evaluar la clasificación directa, se obtuvieron los 16 factores más influyentes. En las últimas 10 reu­niones se aplicaron métodos prospectivos, con el fin de establecer las variables ocultas influyentes para el desarrollo de un plan de recuperación del sitio. Se encontró que tanto la sana interacción social como la restricción de comercio informal, son variables objetivo con gran potencial de via­bilidad, que permitirían la generación de un plan de gestión consensuado, sostenible en el tiempo y viable en el corto y mediano plazo en una sana gobernabilidad del espacio. La conclusión más sobresaliente, fue que la participación ciudada­na orientada a reconocer la variable ambiente, permitió la identificación de factores influyentes de gestión urbana en espacios públicos que, por diferentes razones, han sido vulnerados con actividades no acordes a su función como parte del contexto urbano.
