Automatically translated into English thanks to WorldLingo
About 20 communicators of the country they had all travelled for the hinterland of the Ceará knowing of close the initiatives to success of half convivência with the barren one.

Carried through for the ONG Weather vanes Communication and Education and the Net Andi Brazil, the Itinerante Workshop, that happened of 26 the 30 of November of 2007, it integrates the actions of the Project Communication For the Development: Media, Child and Adolescent in Brazilian Half-Barren and have as objective to present Half-Barren as people region who lives and coexists dries, undoing imaginary the collective one of an infertile environment and absolute misery.

Since 2006, Net ANDI Brazil concentrates its performance in the project Communication for the Development that congregates a series of actions focadas in one of the regions where the challenge to promote and to guarantee the rights of infancy and the adolescence if becomes very bigger.

In accordance with Ana Márcia Diógenes, Officer of Communication of the Unicef, the northeast problem is not dries and yes you surround them. What it lacks in half the barren one is investment in infrastructure, absence of basic politics of health, education, social assistance, scarcity of programs of job generation and income. It is a historical social debt? , Ana Márcia Diógenes comments.

In all half the barren one they live about 13 million children and adolescents and 75% of them live in poverty extreme situation. Already in the Southeastern region, this number falls for 30%, what it strengthens the absence of the state and the promotion of the rights of infancy in the northeast region.

If treating to poverty and income, the children between 0 and 6 years are the ones that more suffer with the income distribution. About 55% of the families with children in this etária band they live with only ½ minimum wage. In relation to the children and adolescents of 7 the 14 years, the numbers do not change much thing, 50.0% live in the same situation.

Children learn in the school that is possible to live in half the barren one

Contradicting the numbers, the notice, the lack of public politics and imaginary the popular one of that north-eastern misery only exists and that everybody that deferred payment there that to go even so, the children of the School of Agricultural Family Dom Fragoso, of the city of Independence, that is the 315 KM of $fortaleza says that they are happy and alone they complain of lacks of chances.
The EFA was born of a dream of workers and agricultural workers of the city of Crateús to conquer the land and to have a life half descent in the barren one. The School receives agricultural children and children of trabalhadores/as, indicated for the communities, nestings and organizations. The school already has 7 years and counts on 72 alunos/as of 33 of communities of 9 cities of the region.

The school adopted the pedagogia of the alternation. To each two weeks the children come back toward the school where they study, they take care of of the house, horta, the criatórios, the arborization, practise sports and they coexist ones the others. In the others two weeks are in house with the family, where they develop the Plan of Study, they search and they raise the problems of the practical community and putting in the learnings acquired in the school.

For the student Adriana Moreira, 12 years, the school is the only chance that the children have in the region. ? I do not want to go daqui even so, taste very to study in the EFA. People learn very, play, coexist the other pupils and later she can lead in return for the community. Here I learned to plant and in my house have one horta that I culture some things? , he comments very smiling and proud.

For the Idelzuith teacher Borges, the knowledge acquired in the school goes to contribute for the social and personal growth of each one. They go to take a luggage of very great knowledge. Here they learn to deal with the land and start to have conscience of the importance to preserve the environment where live and that she is possible to live in the hinterland? it affirms the teacher.

The School of Agricultural Family Dom Fragoso counts on basic partnerships as the Franciscana Community? Germany, Friends of Italy, Foot. Sartorel, Share-Canada/Switzerland and the Project Dom Helder Chamber.


Joined community

Much thing moved later that the inhabitants of the Fertile valley community of Toco, that is the 42 KM of the city of Independence if they had articulated to try to improve the life in the community. By means of the Association of Inhabitants the construction of mandalas was possible to become reality, of the productive yards, hortas communitarian beyond the watering holes of plates. Mandala enters the success experiences is had it that it is a watering hole of circular irrigation of low cost that facilitates the subsistence food production. The objective of the Mandala project is to take care of to the local necessities developing a based model of familiar agriculture in the empreendedorismo and the culture of the cooperation. The methodology already was implanted in nine states (MS, MG, PB, AL, RO, CE, IF, PI AND HARM) promoting local, integrated and sustainable the development.

One another initiative that calls attention sufficiently is the Young Group of the community. The group counts on the adhesion of 25 young of 15 the 20 years where together, they carry through some activities in group. One of them is the celebration that is carried through all the sundays where the young ones if congregate to sing, to pray and to play colloquy it are.
Edilvania Gonçalves, 19 years is part of the group and dreams in making a college to come back and to teach what it learned for the other young. ? The life is a little difficult here. What more I feel lack is to study. Already I finished education average and if I to want to make a college I go to have that to go even so. Without speaking in the difficulty in arranging job in the city, people leave daqui and the only thing that has to make is to be domestic? the young comments.

Each member of the association has an activity. Some take care of of hortas, others of the productive yards, the fisheries of changes. Nice N3obrega, 21 years already finished education average and is responsible for the fishery of changes. I am very happy because here I live with my family. Agreement every day very early, I help my mother in house and later I go to take care of of the fishery. What more propaganda is because I do not have where to study. This cuts my heart and I do not want to leave daqui. We do not have violence, we eat what we plant and we make what the other young makes. We have parties very good, I in one I lose one? , N3obrega comments to the Nice laughs.

The experiences that we had the chance to only know strengthen that when investment in infrastructure and formation are had, the communities obtain to live of what they plant. What it lacks is incentive, public politics and a different look of the remaining portion of Brazil for the northeast region, because optimism they already has of surplus, is the word that better represents the nation of the hinterland northeastern.
