describing the reality and social and cultural practices of the region. In addition to
this approach, this research has a strong ethnographic component, justified by the
integration of the researcher in the community. Due to this methodological option,
four types of field notes were taken in four different domains: job notes, namely
some keywords or expressions written during the visit to the field area; field notes,
which are complete and descriptive notes about the physical context and people
involved, namely relating behaviour and types of communication; methodological
notes, consisting in new ideas that have emerged during the visit and that will be
applied in future visits; and, finally, journals and diaries, where the researcher records
all the events, such as rituals, socialization and oral histories.

7.1 Rural Women Workers of Mucajaí, RR
From the need to strengthen environmental causes, ecological preservation, support
for educational services, movements for the protection of religious minorities, feminists, advocates of ethnic, cultural, academic causes, neighbourhood associations and
community organizations, the Association of Rural Women Workers of the Municipality of Mucajaí, RR was created. Its main beneficiary is the local population,
thus having a fundamental role in terms of social responsibility and sustainability.
It is important to note that this Association makes use of the possibilities offered
by law to guarantee the exercise of citizenship, consequently, contributing to the
sustainable use of environmental resources and overall sustainability. In line with
what the SDGs advocate, based on the principles of internalizing, disseminating and
giving transparency to local agendas, the same Association provides opportunities
for social groups interested in leisure activities, folkloric and carnival events, and
artistic segments, aiming to broaden experiences at the local level, both in terms of
professional activities and income. Currently in Mucajaí, RR, Brazil, there are three
associations that together can carry out various activities to bring people from nearby
municipalities. This is also due to women’s advancements in strengthening positive
experiences, spreading the importance of local agendas towards poverty eradication,
a very important subject in this region, since there is a reduced dependence on aid
from the municipality. It is about repositioning the place of women in this region, in
areas where men were at the centre as the main element for exercising the activity
of tourism.
