The present work analyzes the socio-political experiences and struggles of women in the Seridó and Curimataú regions of Paraíba during the 1990s, attempting to problematize their actions and the changes that took place throughout the process, since the constitution of new power spaces were growing, such as the formation of two NGOs, the "Centro de Educação Popular", popularly known by Cenep in the city of Nova Palmeira, and the "Centro de Educação e Organização Popular" (Ceop), in the city of Picuí, both were established as non-profit organizations with ideologies focused on social and popular issues. It also seeks to reflect on the articulations established between the Catholic Church adept at Liberation Theology, the formation of the "Partido dos Trabalhadores" (PT) in some cities of the regions, and the founding of una union, such as the "Sindicato dos Servidores Públicos Municipais do Curimataú" (Sinpuc) in 1992. From the collected documents and interviews, besides reading about the historiography of the time, we noticed that in regions of Seridó and Curimataú paraibanos a network of civil mobilizations around these and of several other questions and interests that compose the sociopolitical universe. It's certain by the analysis of the sources, a strong sharing of social, political and economic dissatisfaction is evident, in which groups, mostly composed of women, have organized themselves to undermine the daily problems resulting from public administrations and to claim places of power restricted to some elite, inheritances of practices and political cultures visualized both at the state level and in a national context, a fact that directly influences civil and popular articulations in the regions. From the theoretical-methodological point of view, the dissertation was developed in the field of New Political History in dialogue with Cultural History, receiving contributions from the historian Edward Palmer Thompson through the concept of experience. Here the culture category is an important field of analysis, because it enables different ways of understanding around the thoughts of the subjects studied, which operates through customs, traditions, rituals, desires and feelings, fundamental aspects to perceive the lived experiences and changes behaviors acquired over time.
