Project Social Cartography and Technical Training of
Researchers and Social Movements in Kenya and Brazil
This Project facilitates scientific exchange between universities in Kenya and Brazil, as well
as between the social movements in these countries, considering their different sociopolitical contexts. Some of the main objectives of this initiative include: facilitating training
in social mapping techniques for the production of booklets containing interviews with
members of traditional peoples and communities – their essential knowledge, experiences
and views about such social situations; exchange experiences between both countries in
respect to territorial rights and rights to natural resources; as well as developing comparative analysis about the pertaining legal frameworks in both Kenya and Brazil.
