Resumo: Popular knowledge related to medicinal plants has been a topic of interest in many academic studies, along with topics related to rural women. This article investigates how rural women belonging to the Sem Terra landless rural worker’s movement mobilize knowledge related to medicinal plants in order to construct social recognition relationships in the areas of health and education. This qualitative study involved six women in settlements in different regions of Rio Grande do Sul. We first describe their life trajectories and struggles related to medicinal plants, then move on to the relationships these women have with the Brazilian public health care system and its professionals with regard to their knowledge, and examine their interlocutions with rural schools. We conclude that these women understand their knowledge to be essential for life on Earth, transforming their own lives and building emancipatory processes.
