Abstract:
Although the Brazilian semiarid region faces drought-related phenomena, the rainfall rates of the semiarid region are positive when compared to other regions with similar characteristics, but the amount of rain is below the average of the evaporation index, thus the amount of water that the population stores is eliminated by evapotranspiration. This study aimed to analyze public policies and social technologies that promote coexistence with the Brazilian semiarid. Regarding policies, it was decided to analyze three main public policies turned on family farming: the Family Farming Fortification Program (PRONAF), the Harvest Guarantee Program and the Food Acquisition Program. The social technologies analyzed were the One Million Cisterns Program (P1MC) and the One Land Two Water Program (P1 + 2). For the development of the work, were used the descriptive and bibliographic research, and the data analysis were made qualitatively. From the analysis it was diagnosed that the public policies and social technologies implemented in the region had positive effects for those who live daily with the phenomena of "drought" that affect the population of the region, but for better functioning it is necessary enlargements, accompaniment and guidance.
