Resumen
La memoria de una ancestra, es una sistematización de experiencias que busca comprender la importancia de la memoria colectiva de las mujeres campesinas, visibilizando sus saberes y oficios del cacao como práctica esencial para el cuidado del territorio. El estudio sitúa en el centro el concepto de la "cuerpa" como primer territorio de cuidado y escenario de resistencia política frente a las imposiciones sobre su maternidad, sexualidad y roles. A través de tres categorías de análisis—la mujer campesina, los saberes del cacao y la memoria colectiva—la investigación se erige como un acto político y un diálogo entre la academia y la experiencia vital. Su objetivo final es contribuir a la recuperación de la cacaocultura como una forma de habitar los territorios con dignidad y soberanía, regenerando el tejido social en torno a la mujer rural.
“The Memory of an Ancestress” is a systematization of experiences that seeks to understand the importance of the collective memory of rural women, bringing visibility to their knowledge and cacao-related practices as an essential way of caring for the territory. The study places at its core the concept of the “cuerpa” as the primary territory of care and a site of political resistance against impositions on motherhood, sexuality, and social roles. Through three analytical categories—rural women, cacao knowledge, and collective memory—the research stands as a political act and a dialogue between academia and lived experience. Its ultimate aim is to contribute to the recovery of cacao culture as a way of inhabiting territories with dignity and sovereignty, regenerating the social fabric around rural women.
