PROCEDIMENTOS METODOLÓGICOS DE ALTA, MÉDIA E BAIXA INTERVENÇÃO PARA CARACTERIZAÇÃO DE COMUNIDADES AMAZÔNICAS

Abstract

The Amazon region has a natural attraction to community building: the water. For being essential to life's maintenance and to exist in abundance in the region, facilitating the transport of people and materials, is common to observe the displacement of people to the banks of water bodies, giving rise to communities. On the other hand it is observed that in face of the region’s dimensions and of the way how occurs this occupation, access to these communities, dispersed along watercourses or on islands, result in higher time with displacements and in difficulties in development of surveys in loco, especially on rainy days. In this context, this work presents the methodological procedures for high, medium and low intervention, developed by Projeto PIRAHIBA, to characterize communities located around the reservoir of a hydroelectric plant from the involvement of local communities and cross-analysis of primary and secondary data.
