The present work aims to analyze actions and organizations of actors mobilized in processes that are configured as struggles against environmental injustice and for the good living in the community of São Sebastião do Burajuba in Barcarena, municipality of the state of Pará, as resistance to issues related to environmental injustices regarding access to and use of water, in a context marked by mining activities. These activities, considered as pollutants to a high degree, result in significant changes in the ecosystem, in the ways of life, in the economic and cultural practices of quilombola communities, indigenous peoples, farmers, extractivists and fishermen. To this end, the concepts of Environmental Justice by Acselred (2010) and Bem Viver de Acosta (2016) were used, understanding that nature and its resources are references linked to a philosophy of life, part of countless histories of struggle and resistance of called traditional populations. Defending against the injustice posed regarding the unequal distribution of risks by industrial activities is presented in the form of complaints and confrontations in Barcarena carried out by the Association of Caboclos, Indígenas e Quilombolas da Amazônia (Cainquiama) and by the quilombola community São Sebastião do Burajuba. It is a research of qualitative methodology, in which in addition to data analysis and basic bibliography, interviews were conducted with several actors from the Burajuba community, including members of Cainquiama. The research also points out that the fight for environmental justice has a long way to go, mainly in a country marked by several social and territorial inequalities. The results indicated that the emissions of industrial pollutants are destined for part of a territory where populations of ethnic-racial origin live whose socioeconomic situation becomes disadvantaged.

Tratamento diferenciado: sobre reconhecimento e consideração em torno do sistema biomédico no Alto Trombetas
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-01-25) FIDELIS, Juliana Cardoso; CARVALHO, Luciana Gonçalves de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9870905738650852; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7916-9092
This research presents aspects of claims and strategies of access to biomedical health services, originally reserved for the Mineração Rio do Norte employees, as they have been presented by eight comunidades remanescentes de quilombo in Trombetas (Oriximiná / PA). It is the demand for recognition and consideration as moral and rights subjects forged by the quilombolas living in the Território Alto Trombetas II, who, organized, negotiate access with Mineração Rio do Norte to conventional/ hegemonic medicine. In this context, considering the insufficiency of public services rendered in several segments in the territory, as well as the transformations of the "traditional health model" operating based on knowledge passed down through generations and still activated in the comunidades, it is intended to present reflections on the conditions of access to biomedical services, how they are experienced by the populations and dealt with in the discussions/speeches related to the mining company. In this way, we start from the hypothesis that the liberation and the conditions of access to these services constitutes a moral issue of consideration, based on the development of a notion of "differentiated health", that considers them and that enables them to perceive social esteem, as moral and rights subjects. This research develops through ethnographic work that is methodologically based on the multisituated approach, by which we follow the fundamental relationships based on the emerging discourses that make up the fields of negotiation and understandings about recognition.
