This article is the report of the experience of an intervention, carried out from the request of a social action in the city of Rio de Janeiro: “VainaWeb”, a program made by residents and former slum dwellers, aimed at teaching software development and putting young people professionally residents of two locations: the Morro dos Prazeres and the Complexo do Alemão. The federal military intervention that occurred in the city on February 2018 presented new challenges for the program. At the same time, it was noticed the absence of academic papers on the subject, in Psychology. The method sed for the intervention was Cartography, based on Schizoanalysis. The conceptual demarcation that was used for the beginning of the intervention were the studies in Cognition Policies, with the objective of understanding the powerful cognitive movements already present to make the action. The intervention resulted in the construction of pedagogical methods that had as a principle the cognitive territories of the communities where the project is inserted – which resulted in an increase in the use and market penetration of the graduates of the program. It is concluded that, despite the partial achievement of satisfactory results in the use of the program, it is still necessary to create tools to deal with this situation in which political phenomena inflict directly on cognition, collaborating with cognition in its disruptive power and inventive resistance.
