Abstract:
The present study proposes to investigate how the experiences lived in the home- university- home journeys affect the undergraduate students' experiences with the Federal University of Campina Grande – UFCG and the construction of their identities. The objective of the research is to reflect on the mobility of UFCG undergraduates in the home-university-home journeys based on the subjective experiences of university students living in rural communities, cities and states outside the city of the UFCG campus, in the city of Cajazeiras-PB. Methodologically, we opted for a qualitative approach through narrative research, an interview technique developed by Fritz Schutze in the 1970s, which aimed to break with the traditional question and answer approach in the development of data production in social research (Schutze, 2011 apud Sousa et al.; 2021). According to Sandra Jovchelovitch and Martisn Bauer (2002), this technique aims to reconstruct events from the perspective of the narrators. The research is theoretically grounded in the decolonial perspectives of authors such as bell hooks (2018), Conceição Evaristo (2005-2020), Gloria Anzaldúa (2000), Sueli Carneiro (2003-2011), Djamila Ribeiro (2021), among others. Building on the writings of Lino et al. (2020), The challenge here is to highlight the voice of historically “voiceless”, “subaltern” subjects, and outline methodological paths that can make it possible to hear them, pointing to the ways in which gender inequalities present themselves at universities, denouncing the barriers traditionally imposed on women, who for centuries have encountered challenges in occupying public spaces, which present themselves as mechanisms of reproduction and creation of barriers to the access and permanence of diverse women at university.
