The Social Organization of the Community...

Social organizations present themselves in society in the most diverse types of formats, arrangements and sizes.
They are constituted according to the practices and needs of the region in which they are inserted, establishing connections with the wider society and, thus, favoring social development.The fundamental characteristic of a social organization is the dialogue between the population and the knowledge, whether that comes from practices accumulated in everyday experiences, or those made possible by scientific research.In the field of ecology, these organizations contribute to the dissemination of strategic practices for the advancement of quality of life in rural and urban areas, in harmony with nature, as well as offering assistance and exchanges within the ecological networks distributed throughout the territory.
The way in which a social organization determines itself varies according to the forms of constitution available in its cultural context and in relation to its degree of legitimacy vis-à-vis the society in which it is inserted.Thus, we have organizations that present themselves as Institute, Collective, Association, Cooperative, NGO, Public Agency, Educational Center (schools, workshops), Spiritual Center (churches, temples), Cultural Center and Community Center.In these spaces, social activities are carried out within their scope of action in society. In this range of varieties, educational centers and institutes are more linked to scientific aspects, while spiritual centers are linked to metaphysical issues, without, however, losing their complementary character of social and cultural components of human life.
On the other hand, cooperatives, NGOs and public bodies are characterized by a more bureaucratic and administrative structure in society, while collectives and associations tend to be slightly less institutionalized forms of social organization.In the current experiences of agroecological practices, different social organizations are more frequently observed: families, neighbors, church, cooperatives and associations, and many of these organizations are assisted by public bodies and/or NGOs.In general, the modes of organization and the choice of groups are linked to the type of identification established between them, and this dynamic gives visibility to the elaboration of an awareness of belonging, making agroecology much more than a agricultural practice that does not use chemical fertilizers and pesticides, but a social idea practiced in different niches of society.The association of farmers enables the exchange of experiences and knowledge, in addition to the development of the spirit of collectivity and solidarity, fundamental elements in the incentive to improve production and the quality of life and work in the countryside.It is also possible to observe that the agroecological practice developed in networks brought rural workers a new awareness of their fundamental importance, as an individual and as a group, for the improvement of the food condition of society.Thus, the development of shared social activities among ecological rural agents produces a much broader awareness towards society, as they communicate and recognize each other for their practices. In this way, these collective work and business practices make it possible to affirm the social and economic validity of agroecology.It is noteworthy that one of the important pillars of many social organizations is education, present in various educational practices or even in local schools, in partnership with universities or resulting from municipal public policies.The educational activities developed seek to democratize both the knowledge and experiences accumulated by the collectives, as well as academic knowledge, in a permanent exchange. This involves interaction between people and groups, and joint learning of a plurality of knowledge.Educational actions have great relevance for society, since they act as guides in the process of training people, introducing aspects of tradition, knowledge and the desired projection of the world.
It is observed that the social organizations themselves have a pedagogical dimension, in addition to the initiatives to promote courses, lectures and seminars, in order to train farmers.Cooperation practices, through joint work, favor the experience of citizenship, by enabling awareness of the need for the presence of public policies committed to rural workers, with the production of healthy foods and their commercialization.In this way, the way an organization establishes its relations with the population directly influences the way of life practiced in society.In the field of Web technology and innovations, the concept of Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) emerges as a new form of social organization, integrated with the tools of computer technology.This new type of organization establishes new dynamics of interaction in society, since it starts to use technology resources as management tools.In this sense, a DAO is also characterized by its community decentralization factor, allowing greater participation of social agents, since the technology is developed as a tool in favor of the socio-environmental development of the community, with intentional and verifiable objectives.DAOs use advances in digital programming to create governance and financial management structures, allowing for a creative plethora of processes to build within the community.In the field of ecology, Impact DAOs have gained notoriety with their innovation structures, integrating development models and allowing ecological agents in the field to receive financial rewards for their activities, thus distributing funds from international environmental regimes.This new management model favors the inclusion of small ecological producers, who can have their socio-environmental participation directly recognized by people from anywhere in the world.Thus, social organizations establish themselves as forms of configuration and insertion of the most diverse groups in the society in which they live.Throughout the development of civilizations, the ways of grouping are transformed, as other forms of interaction emerge and new processes of adaptation and social construction are established.In the ecological field, practices permeate the most diverse niches of society and, increasingly, new tools and resources have been used to build the socio-environmental movement in favor of improving the quality of life, in harmony with nature.This construction and permanent development are the factors that produce the fundamental synergies of social organisms, as their members adapt and learn to use new tools in the quest to achieve their goals as a collective organization.
