This paper proposes a study on the historical process of land use and occupation of the Federal University of Pará (UFPA), Belém, state of Pará, Brazil, since its construction in 1957 until the present day. This is the analysis of existing green areas in Guamá Campus in order to identify them and characterize them from the precepts of biology in line with other areas of knowledge. Serving, among other purposes, as an informative tool for social mobilization or to promote actions by the responsible managers, for the study develops the knowledge of planning and land management, particularly the local scale of a notoriously important area in Amazon. For this, literature review was conducted, documents and iconography materials were collected, and also there was personal communication, during the fieldwork. It was identified that the main green areas are concentrated in the woods named: Paul Ledoux, Adolph Duck, Benito Calzavara and Camilo Vianna, on the banks of the creeks Tucunduba and Sapucajuba, that crosses the UFPA, where species of recognized economic value as mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla) and Pará chestnut (Bertholletia excelsa) were discovered. The study indicates that the conservation status of the Guamá Campus is found to be vulnerable, despite the existing legislation, knowledge and technology generated by the University itself and the global concern about the Amazon region, requiring assets management plans committed to the sustainability paradigm.
