Abstract

This article aims to understand how the population affected by the transposition of the São Francisco river deals with expropriation on a daily basis. It is a qualitative, interventional, and cartographic research carried out through a hermeneutic phenomenological perspective. The research is a follow up of the continuing education program called TransVERgente. The intervention/investigation generated data from conversation circles. The participants of the study were six low income farmers from Sertânia/PE. The data analysis followed Critelli's Analytic of Sense. The narratives revealed that expropriation causes environmental and lifestyle changes, pointing out that the area studied is marked by the violation of farmers´ fundamental rights, and by conflicts in political relations, in which farmers have a subordinate status. Finally, we reflect on the clinical action in daily living, articulated with political actions as possibilities to support those who struggle every day for their rights and for a place to live.
