| Summary: | The ecological engagement presupposes a continuous involvement between researchers and the participants in
the context where the investigation occurs. However, in some field researchers there are inherent operational
problems that complicate the ceaseless contact of the researchers and that configure themselves as a methodological
challenge. This article presents the strategies used for ecological engagement of a researchers team in an Amazon
river context at Marajó island. It will be discussed the following aspects: a) the formation of the researchers team
and the collective construction of knowledge; b) the contact with the informer, his role and the description of one
strategy for a data collection through the techniques of photographies and c) the use of the sociodemographic
inventory (SDI) as an element of collection and ecological engagement. |
