O aplicativo alerta clima indígena: digitalização das terras indígenas à luz da ecologia da comunicação

Abstract

This dissertation aims to analyze, in the light of the ecology of communication, the digitization of Indigenous Lands experienced by the Alerta Clima Indígena application, developed by Ipam together with the Raoni Institute, Indigenous of Roraima (CIR) and the Commission of Chiefs and Leaders of the Araribóia Indigenous Land (CCOCALITIA), whose purpose is to disseminate scientific data on climate, fire and deforestation of Indigenous Lands in the Brazilian Amazon. The platform also has resources for creating alerts against threats to Indigenous Lands and inserting information about traditional uses such as hunting, fishing and gathering. In this context, based on ecology of communication (DI FELICE, 2017), this characterization is an experimental and qualitative research context of the immersive perspective in which the researcher enters the networks and integrates as supplying all in das. In the investigative path, we present a description of the app's partner associations and the collaborative construction of indigenous workshops while, later, we immerse ourselves in the app's interactive architectures and then analyze the independent processes experienced by the Mẽbêngôkôkókre (Kayapó) people, from the perspective of two residents of the Capoto/Jarina Indigenous Land located in the state of Mato Grosso. In this sense, the experience of digitization, of Indigenous Lands, from the Alerta Clima Indígena app in the “creation of hybrid worlds” (DI FELICE, 2021), where scientific data, technologies, rains, wind, animals and how trees have their own capabilities and are transformed by them, as well as indigenous peoples and creativity in the forms of appropriation of the invention from the new practices for the Management of Indigenous Lands.
