This research is part of the research group, GEPAT (Group of Studies and Research on Water and Land). The objective of this dissertation aims to discuss about three categorical worked in Geography: territory, gender and water. This triad proposed as the object of analysis is justified to the extent that these categories provide opportunity to understand the power relations that permeate the discussions on the management of water resources and are in different spacial territorialized of semiarid Paraiba.Given these more general discussions on gender relations and water, we sought to understand their relationships to elucidate this Masters research. In the case of women linked to the Brazilian Semi-Arid Articulation (ASA-Brazil) noted that his actions also represent the struggle of all peoples. This coordination is done through a policy of coexistence, of awareness and articulation of social projects.
