To this end we discuss some concepts involving this topic, as the physical matter of the slopes, as the rains interfere with the sliding process and these would constitute the environmental risk to the population. We will report an overview of some management actions risk areas in slums in the cities of Rio de Janeiro and Niterói, through laws and plans of public bodies, for example. And to illustrate how a situation of conflict is administered by the example of the Morro do Bumba slip in Niterói.
