Abstract

In this article, I analyze the communication work done by the Movement of Small Farmers (MPA) in the context of the Drought Camp, a mobilization that originated the MPA in 1996. The research was conducted through the author's praxis in the MPA (2018-2022), using the methodology of action research. In the results and discussions, I describe the artifacts, technologies, and procedures used in the organizational process of the movement. The conclusion points to a dialectical overcoming of the communicative form of the MPA in relation to rural unionism and highlights the relevance of communication artifacts contextualized with the Latin American.
