Weave another Basket of Knowledge? A remote collaborative research on the covid-19 pandemic / Tecer outro Cesto de Conhecimentos? Pesquisa colaborativa e remota na pandemia de covid-19

Resumo A partir da experiência do projeto Respostas Indígenas à COVID-19 no Brasil: arranjos sociais e saúde global (PARI-c), na região do Alto Rio Negro (AM), buscamos refletir neste artigo sobre as possibilidades e implicações da produção colaborativa de conhecimento com pesquisadoras indígenas, levando em consideração a emergência sanitária, as imobilidades territoriais, as desigualdades sociais e as diferenças epistemológicas e de políticas ontológicas. A partir da ideia de Cestos de conhecimento, pensamos as formas e possibilidades dessa colaboração, à luz de discussões contemporâneas sobre processos de "descolonização" da saúde pública (global, planetária) e do conhecimento em saúde. A base empírica para este artigo é uma descrição da experiência metodológica, de produção de conhecimento, focada em duas faces: o campo e a escrita. Esse material nos permite tecer algumas considerações em torno da relevância e do sentido de formas de geração de "saberes híbridos", para lidar com contextos de crises globais ou sindemias. Estas formas, como veremos, atravessam o realinhamento das alianças e têm na escrita de mulheres um lugar especial de atenção.

Abstract From the experience of the project Indigenous Responses to COVID-19 in Brazil: social arrangements and global health (PARI-c), in the region of Alto Rio Negro (AM), we seek to reflect in this article on the possibilities and implications of collaborative knowledge production with indigenous researchers, taking into account the health emergency, territorial immobilities, social inequalities, and epistemological and ontological policy differences. From the idea of Baskets of knowledge, we think about the forms and possibilities of this collaboration, in the light of contemporary discussions on processes of "decolonization" of public health (global, planetary) and health knowledge. The empirical basis for this article is a description of the methodological experience of knowledge production, focused on two aspects: the field and writing. This material allows us to make some considerations around the relevance and meaning of ways of generating "hybrid knowledge", to deal with contexts of global crises or syndemics. These ways, as we shall see, cross the realignment of alliances and find a special focal point on women's writing.

'Rio Negro, We care'. Indigenous women, cosmopolitics and public health in the COVID-19 pandemic.

The purpose of this article is to understand the 'Rio Negro, We Care' campaign in its cosmopolitical implications for discussions of global health and human rights. This article is part of a collaborative process centred on the city of São Gabriel da Cachoeira and the Alto Rio Negro region of Brazil. This campaign was developed by the Department of Women of the Federation of Indigenous Organizations of Rio Negro (DMIRN/FOIRN) at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. It had significant effects on the pandemic experience in the region during 2020. The Brazilian responses to the COVID-19 pandemic highlight complex, intersectional and neocolonial processes, associated with what has been understood as the necropolitics led by the Brazilian federal government. At the same time, such responses shed light on the limitations of the biopolitical orientation of public and global health for the management of the pandemic. We seek to narrate a cosmopolitical intervention located 'in culture' as a counterpoint to this process. Our analysis highlights questions in the field of global and planetary health milestones, such as the conditions of legitimacy for cosmological knowledge and care technologies, or the ontological implications of the persistent biopolitical bias of mainstream public health interventions.
