  • The River that Arrives Without Warning

    Living in Fragoso since she was a teenager, in the last few years Penha has seen her life change with the execution of a project to canalize the Fragoso River. She tells Waterlution how life is during the rainy season, and how the water invades the house where she lives with her husband while she waits for changes.

  • Life on the Tides

    Shellfish fisherwoman since she was 14 years old, Dona Maria knows the tides as a great friend. She shared with Waterlution about day-to-day life and the pride of being a shellfish gatherer, as well as her perceptions about the territory of Ilha de Deus and her trajectory with those waters.

  • The City, the Boatman and the River

    A synthesis of years living the river from the inside out: Waterlution talked to Anisio, he works as a boatman on the Capibaribe River in the city of Recife for 40 years. We talked about his perceptions of the waters, the changes and his wishes for this aquatic territory that is this man’s life.
