The research addresses the harmful social and environmental impacts caused by the hydroelectric dams of the Madeira River Complex, located near Porto Velho (RO), composed by the Santo Antônio and Jirau hydroelectric dams, on various traditional populations of the region that surrounds it, our focus was on the community Mutum Paraná that suffered flooding of its territory and socio-cultural disintegration due to these enterprises, leading some of its residents who did not opt ​​to receive compensation or letter of credit, to be resettled in Nova Mutum Paraná by the economic consortium responsible for the Jirau hydroelectric plant, “Sustainable Energy of Brazil - ESBR”, in 2011. We emphasized the social and environmental impacts caused both by the construction of the hydroelectric plants and by the construction of the referred resettlement in total disagreement with the way of life of the riverside populations that inhabited the region. In addition, we sought to delineate the relationship that these community had with the region affected by the enterprises as a basic element of their economic and socio-cultural subsistence. Thus, it was also the objective of this work to elucidate the social and environmental impacts suffered by this community that is formally inserted in a “sustainable resettlement model”, but which, in practice, faces problems related to sustainability (or unsustainability). We use the dialectical approach method with bibliographic and documentary data collection procedures through a qualitative approach.
