From aninterdisciplinary perspective and through a qualitativedesign, mixed interviews—combining structured andunstructured elements—and field observations centeredon the contextual dynamics of three popular neighborhoods.The study focuses on family and community ties,labor and relationships with institutions between 2017and 2024. The findings reveal both structural and emergingconditions in urban peripheries of the interior of thecountry, highlighting the identification of gender rolesin social participation related to care work and the constructionof the commons as strategies for re-signifyingsocial inequalities and territorial stigmatization.
