SUMMARY:

Commons refer both to tragedies – issues of scarcity, unsustainability and unequal access to life-sustaining resources, of democratic crises erasure of ways of living, knowing and being – and to worldviews of abundance, sufficiency, justice, emancipation, sovereignty, mutuality, and legitimization of the diverse. Urban community gardens have been theorized as common in cities, but the co-constitutive character of nature and society is little observed. This research seeks to answer to calls to urbanize the commons, not only by thinking about the dilemmas of the commons in an urban context, but by understanding how urbanization processes are intertwined in these dilemmas, and to investigate the role of emotions, bodies, everyday practices and relationships in environmental conflicts and political negotiations. It also seeks to extend to the experiences of the Global South the locus of theorization and critical reflection on planning practices and the construction of imaginaries. Understanding care as the continuous and shared effort to repair the world to support life, and to repair relationships in the management of needs and capacities, the objective of this research is to understand how care is territorialized in the Gera Juncal community garden. It seeks to understand how the management of needs and capacities is carried out within the network, based on material and discursive conflicts. It questions how these care relationships manifest themselves in the forms of appropriation of the territory, in power relations and in the definition of flows and mobilities. This is a qualitative research, based on case study . The case chosen is the Gera Juncal vegetable garden, located in Jardim Iguatemi, district of São Mateus, east zone of São Paulo. The garden is a collective and community initiative inserted in a popular mobilization for housing. It is employed a relational approach -- which observes the more-than-human relations in the production of territorialities – and techniques of participant observation, field notes, semi-structured interviews and document analysis. From the application of the Pilot Study between February and July 2023, are described the trajectory and context of the creation and maintenance of the garden since October 2021. Emerging themes related to daily practices, strategies and tactics, identities and relationships, perceptions and meanings, and processes were identified. This first systematization effort underpins the research continuity plan presented here.
