Cadastro Ambiental Rural em terras de uso comum: desafios e aprendizagens da elaboração coletiva a partir do território quilombola do Jambuaçu, Moju - PA

Abstract

After more than 10 years of the new Forest Code, Law 12651/2012, and the implementation of the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR), a public electronic registry, mandatory for all rural properties, little has been addressed about the CAR of Traditional Peoples and Communities (PCT). Thus, considering that there are few studies related to this theme, as well as that there are no legal documents that guide the registration process exclusively for the PCT segment and that take into account the relationship of these peoples with the land, their ways of life, customs, traditional knowledge and forms of organization, this work is presented as a form of contribution to studies in the area and to the practice of CAR/PCT in the state of Pará. The locus of the research is located in the Quilombola Territory of Jambuaçu, municipality of Moju, State of Pará, specifically in the following communities: Nossa Senhora da Conceição; Oxalá de Jacunday; Ribeira do Jambu-Açu; Santa Luzia do Bom Prazer; Santa Luzia do Tracuateua; Santa Maria de Mirindeua; Santo Cristo; São Manoel; São Sebastião. This research has as its main objective to implement a methodology for elaborating the CAR/PCT in common use lands that is adequate to the specific forms of existence and economic, social and cultural reproduction of traditional peoples and communities in the state of Pará. For this, the following specific objectives were established: a) To evaluate the importance of the CAR in the context of common use lands and its applicability in light of the Forest Code and collective territories for the use and exploitation of natural resources; b) To analyze the process of collective elaboration and construction of the CAR PCT, based on a case study on the quilombola territory of Jambuaçu; c) To prepare a draft Normative Instruction that regulates the public action to support collective elaboration of the quilombola CAR, contributing to the improvement of the actions of the Regulariza Pará Program. During the entire registration procedure for the quilombola communities of Jambuaçu - expression of interest by the community; training meetings; leadership meetings; training of representatives; registration in SICAR/PA - meetings were held with all fifteen (15) communities that expressed interest in the registration. Of these fifteen (15) communities, nine (9) completed the registration process. With this, we seek to offer and implement public policies and contribute to the project of environmental regularity of the territories of the entire state of Pará. Based on the discussion of the data, it was considered essential to discuss and establish a post-CAR procedure, in order to successfully achieve the goals of conservation of natural resources and recovery of degraded areas.
