It consists of an action research developed by a center of research that seeks to favor the empowerment of the subjects in the face of risk situations. The study is carried out at farmers' production sites and at the rural school where their children study, being carried out by the students of the Chemistry Major Degree at IFG – Anapolis Campus. By the use of qualitative instruments the main adverse situations in this context were identified and we report actions of the Center of Research.
