Impact of the sowing life program in the forms of social organization, from the Good Living approach in San Blas Atempa, Oax

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to identify the relationship between the forms of social organization from the perspective of good living in the indigenous communities that belong to the Sembrando Vida Program in the municipality of San Blas Atempa, Oax. The study is qualitative in nature, and is supported by non-participant observation and semi-structured interviews. The selection of the sample was convenient, in combination with the "snowball" technique. Data collection was carried out in March 2023 and consisted of a sample of 22 planters. The research results indicate that in the operation of the program, the forms of community organization in the interior of the state of Oaxaca have been strengthened, provided that the Sembrando Vida Program has taken advantage of traditional forms of organization and institutions, of an indigenous nature, among which are the mano vuelta, the tequio and the guelaguetza, especially in communities that became more vulnerable after COVID.
