(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014-09) MOTA, Dalva Maria da; SCHMITZ, Heribert; SILVA JÚNIOR, Josué Francisco da; PORRO, Noemi Sakiara Miyasaka; OLIVEIRA, Tania Carolina Viana de
This article is about the experience of a group of women in the commercialization of gathered wild fruits through the governmental Food Purchase Program (PAA) in the Brazilian State of Sergipe. The analytical framework is associated to the debate on poverty and specific public policies for traditional communities in rural areas. The women hold a collective identity as the mangaba gatherers, based on their use of common pool resources with low environmental impact. They mobilize themselves through the MCM – Movimento das Catadoras de Mangaba, Mangaba Gatherer Women´s Movement. Although they have recently been recognized as having specific legal rights, they are experiencing the dwindling of the resources they gather, as well as difficulties in commercialization of the fruits due to their seasonality and the unpredictability of access. The research was carried out between 2008 and 2011 and involved direct and participant observations and open-ended interviews. The main results show that the PAA has contributed to increased income, consumption and self-esteem. There was a re-arrangement in their way of participating in the program, meanwhile some of their traditional practices were relegated. The program rules were re-signified and adapted locally. While growing solidarity has been observed among the gatherers, competition for the fruits has also increased.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-12-17) ROCHA, Maria Margarette Lisboa; MOTA, Dalva Maria da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4129724001987611
Conflicts over access to resources for the practice of extractivism of mangaba in Sergipe are the object of analysis in this study. The survey was conducted through a case study in Pontal Village, in Indiaroba municipality in the state of Sergipe. The main procedures were observations, interviews and participation in the mobilization activities of gatherers. The findings show that among the various actors involved in the conflicts there are the women gatherers, self-styled 'mangaba gatherers ', threatened with losing access to the plants, which engage in the extraction of which depend on to survive. We found different types of conflicts that involve the mangaba gatherers, home owners and caretakers, as well as conflicts even among gatherers themselves. The dispute and competition are strong elements experienced by these women gatherers, in defending their rights, access to natural resources (mangabeiras where they collect fruits and mangroves where they collect shellfish), and also in defense of biodiversity conservation which is so important to the survival of man in harmony with nature.

Interpretações de programas de políticas públicas por mulheres extrativistas de mangaba em Sergipe
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013) MOTA, Dalva Maria da; SCHMITZ, Heribert; PORRO, Noemi Sakiara Miyasaka; SILVA JUNIOR, Josue Francisco da; RODRIGUES, Raquel Fernandes de Araújo
The objective of this paper is to analyze the local interpretations of public policy programs by mangaba gatherer women. The Food Acquisition Program (PAA) and the Insurance Program for Artisan Fishermen were assessed, regarding women with regular or occasional participation. Field observations and open and semi-structured interviews were carried out and analyzed in the light of the theoretical contributions of sociology. The findings indicate that both programs provide improved income and higher self-regard to the affiliates. They differ, however, regarding the use of natural resources: temporarily interrupted in the case of fishing and stimulated in the mangaba gathering. In relation to the local interpretations, the relationships promoted by the PAA are more market-like due to the contractual requirements. The Insurance for Fishermen is perceived locally as a welfare program, a sort of support from the government to the poor population, demanding however a return, which depends on the individual conscience.

O Trabalho familiar extrativista sob a influência de políticas públicas
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014) MOTA, Dalva Maria da; SCHMITZ, Heribert; SILVA JÚNIOR, Josué Francisco da; RODRIGUES, Raquel Fernandes de Araújo
This paper assesses the relationship between the family labor organization in the extractive activity and the involvement in public policy programs in Sergipe State. The research was predominantly carried out through a qualitative approach with women self-appointed as mangaba gatherers and “marisqueiras”. This is a relevant segment to the “traditional people and communities” affiliated to the closed season insurance of artisanal fishermen (SDPA), the family grant program (PBF), and the Brazilian food acquisition program (PAA). The research approach included observations and interviews with different social actors involved in the extractive activity and public policy programs. The main findings show that public policies programs: i) influence the reorganization of everyday work in the extractive activity, especially concerning the reduction of the participation of young people and children in the activity and the intensity of working hours; ii) strengthen the traditional roles of men and women in the PBF and dilute the frontiers between these roles through the PAA program; iii) decreases the workload through the SDPA program and increases it in the PAA; and iv) affect the different significances attributed to labor.
