Abstract(s)
A formação para o desenvolvimento local chegou a Alte na década de 1980, por meio do projeto RADIAL caminho seguido depois pela Associação In Loco. Foi precisamente no âmbito da formação para o desenvolvimento local – tema desta investigação – que surgiram várias experiências, primeiramente nas freguesias rurais de Alte, Cachopo, Azinhal e Martinlongo. O nosso objeto de estudo é uma dessas experiências, trata-se de uma oficina de brinquedos de madeira e bijuteria denominada “Da Torre” (freguesia de Alte – concelho de Loulé), composta atualmente por três artesãs. Sendo das poucas oficinas que ainda hoje é uma realidade, pretendemos perceber como é que essa caminhada de 34 anos tem sido feita. Optamos por uma abordagem qualitativa e adotamos o paradigma interpretativo, elegendo o estudo de caso como metodologia. Como técnicas de recolha de dados utilizamos as entrevistas narrativas, as entrevistas semiestruturadas, a observação e a análise documental. A análise de resultados mostra-nos que não tem sido propriamente rentável para as três artesãs viver do artesanato, mas a sua resiliência e o amor ao que fazem têm-nas mantido no ativo. Nas conclusões apresentam-se as limitações que constituíram algum constrangimento a um melhor desenvolvimento da investigação, entre elas a falta de tempo, e deixam-se dicas para futuras investigações que passam por estudar mais a fundo esta experiência ou outras experiências de formação para o desenvolvimento local, que surgiram na Serra do Caldeirão.
Training for local development arrived in Alte in the 1980s, through the RADIAL project, followed later by the In Loco Association. It was precisely in the context of training for local development – the subject of this research – that various experiences emerged, in the rural parishes of Alte, Cachopo, Azinhal and Martinlongo. Our object of study is one of these experiences, a wooden toys and jewellery workshop called “Da Torre” (parish of Alte – municipality of Loulé), currently made up of three craftswomen. Being one of the few workshops which is still a reality today, we wanted to understand how this journey has been made. We adopted a qualitative approach and adopted the interpretive paradigm, choosing the case study as our methodology. As data collection techniques, we used narrative interviews, semi-structured interviews, observation and documentary analysis. The results analysed show that it hasn't exactly been profitable for the three craftswomen to make a living from handicrafts, but their resilience and love for what they do have kept them going. In the conclusions, we present the limitations that have been a constraint on the better development of the research, including the lack of time, and we leave hints for future investigations that could include a more in-depth study of this experience or other training experiences for local development, which have emerged in the Serra do Caldeirão.
