The semiarid has remarkable characteristics, namely: the rainy season that is well demarcated in a short period of time, in addition to the high temperature and insolation rates. More than 95% of the municipality of Ceará is part of the semiarid. This state presents a high risk of drought and desertification. Still the Brazilian semiarid is one of the most populous. Most of the people who live there survive from agriculture and so social technologies are so important that they value the traditional knowledge of the populations to condition water for drinking and for production, taking advantage of the other potentialities of this territory. This paper aims to map the sustainable forms of land use that guarantee the rights of the population and promote health in the state of Ceará, besides demonstrating with the view of the ecological economy how these alternatives are in line with its principles. and how it has been advancing in Ceará. The research has a qualitative approach, is a descriptive and exploratory study, for the research were used data from secondary sources of social entities that provide advice to the populations of the countryside and water regarding the strategies of living with the semiarid. The following information was collected: water storage territory usufruct activities such as cisterns, biowater, underground dams, agroecology activities such as agroforestry, productive backyards, mandalas and seed houses. The Tableau Public platform was used to create the maps. More than 4,000 experiments were mapped, highlighting strategies for water storage and productive backyards. It is concluded that there are many strategies of land use that are present in several municipalities of the state of Ceará, and that through them the ecological economy have advanced, but it is observed that it is still necessary to expand these activities that are beneficial for society as a whole.
