Reconocer la voz de las comunidades para acompañar y aprender Desafíos en el contexto ETA - IOTA, Nicaragua

Abstract

This essay seeks to share some reflections arising
in the practice of the author, who was part of an
accompaniment process developed in the Caribbean
of Nicaragua, in the post-disaster context due to the
occurrence of the impact that the entry of 2 hurricanes
meant in the year 2020. The purpose is to put out loud
the need to document the actions that are sought in
terms of psychosocial accompaniment, emotional
recovery or accompaniment in critical situations
as they have been called, mainly when they are
developed in contexts of emergency and attention to
disasters and even more when these occur in realities
of cultural diversity that need to be revalued. Highlight
then, the importance of rethinking the proposals, the
conceptual categories packaged in the concept of help,
investigate and propose based on observation and
sensitive listening, actions that can effectively favor
integrated accompaniments to the worldview of the
peoples, adjusted to their needs, narratives and links
with the environment, expressed in the relationships
between people, families and communities, especially
when events persist in cycles that come and go and
call for learning and invoking hope to be reborn in
harmony with everything.
From the dialogue, based on the narrative of women,
men, young people, students, workers and workers,
history was woven to recover what was lived, to find
the cultural, symbolic keys that favored looking at
each other, crying and strengthening ourselves in the
common and the diverse, in community.
This writing is dedicated to them and to them, brothers
and sisters, thanking them for the opportunity to
learn in the privilege that meant the possibility of
accompanying the hope of collective reconstruction
for good living.
