This includes exchanging knowledge and seeds, as practiced in the agroecology movement. At the Juçara Agroecological Association, valuing ancestral knowledge is essential for promoting autonomy and empowerment among rural communities.

This initiative also aims to support the elderly men and women of the Santa Maria Settlement, strengthening community involvement in traditional practices.

Initially, the project will benefit three elderly women farmers—grandmothers and widows—through gatherings with younger farmers from the Association. These meetings will help organise and carry out planting and management activities, tailored to each grandmother's needs.

With this project, it is hoped that these grandmothers will be able to continue cultivating the land, a practice that helps in the climate transition, guarantees food security for their families, generating income, in addition to helping younger people to continue a life in the countryside with empowerment and respect for their own ancestral cultures.
