Autoetnografia: A construção da identidade de uma interventora social

Abstract

This research is an unfolding of a work I have been doing for ten years as a social intervenor, through which I develop Social Projects aimed at the empowerment of vulnerable women. Together with my mentor, we consider it pertinent for my conclusion work of the Master in Social Intervention, Innovation and Entrepreneurship (MISIE), the elaboration of an autoetnographic research, as an opportunity to conceive a theoretical text aimed at transcribing the experiences that contributed to the construction of my identity as a social actor. The elaboration of an autoetnography is only justified when the content that will be the focus of the research has, in fact, some relevance and can bring significant contribution to the field of sociological research. For the composition of this research my personal experiences will be the main instruments of analysis. My field diaries, books, videos, photographs, clothes, interviews and other registrations will be part of the analysis procedures. The expected contribution is to generate an intellectual production that can engage, sensitize and inspire more subjects interested in becoming social actors, with a focus on developing Social Projects aimed at marginalized women.
