Segurança alimentar e nutricional no semiárido baiano: um estudo sobre sobre as contribuições do programa uma terra duas águas (P1+2)

Abstract

The present project is originated from the study of the contributions of the Program1 earth and 2 waters (P1+2), developed by Brazilian Semiarid Articulation(ASA), improving the conditions of the Bahia Semi-arid’s Food and Nutritional security. The main purpose was to survey elements that show the viability in this region, its riches e potentials, occulted behind the fatalistic and delayed image historically built. In this sense, the reflection of the Coexistence with the Semi-arid as a paradigm to think and to engage new social, political and economic relations, clothed with the protagonism of the sertanejo, is able to rescue their stories and identities diluted in the process of construction of the Semi-arid. The current research searched in the Regional Institute of Appropriate Small Farmers (IRPAA) experience, support for the elaboration of analyzes about the possible contributions of P1 + 2 in Food and Nutrition Security of the farmers families who received this technology in municipalities of the Territory of Identity Sertão de São Francisco. The perceptions of improvements in SAN conditions, reported by the farmers themselves and recorded in their entirety in this work, are a fundamental reference to understand how they understand this reality, and what are the main challenges and perspectives that they can glimpse about the situation they experience in the daily life of the Semiarid. These statements made possible a reflection of the real deficit that prevails in the backlands, which are the right public policies and not the water. The product of the reflections is recorded in form of recommendations and proposals to increase the approach to Food and Nutrition Security in the process of training and mobilization carried out by the IRPAA in the implantation of cisterns and also in the provision of the Technical Assistance and Rural Extension (ATER) to families of farmers who received P1 + 2.
