Description
Summary:ABSTRACT: The objective of this article is to analyse the contextualisation of the central elements that influenced the constitution of the Mangaba Collection of Sergipe (MCM), as well as its purposes, besides the discussion of the main achievements related to the mangaba pickers. The Mangaba Collection of Sergipe (MCM) it was created in 2007 on the need to defend the extraction of mangaba on the coast. The organizational purpose of this traditional community segment was determined by the reduction of the ecosystems in which the mangaba collectors are used for the development of their extractive practices. After the MCM training, selfrecognition as a mango picker was highlighted. Another highlight is the self-organization of this social movement, which consists in the struggle for the remaining areas of mangabeiras, which are considered by extractors of mangaba as source of income and reproduction of unique knowledge due to the interdependence with the environment. For the development of this work was based on bibliographical research through primary and secondary documents that depict the foundation and the conceptions of the Mangaba Collection of Sergipe.
