REVOLLO PARDO, Catalina; AKEMI TAKEITI, Beatriz; TOVAR GUERRA, Claudia  and  ALVES FONTES, Jean Vitor. Psychosociology as an Epistemic Device for the Peace Culture: Notes about Latin Americans Experiences - Brazil and Colombia. Pesqui. prát. psicossociais [online]. 2021, vol.16, n.2, pp. 1-20. ISSN 1809-8908.

This article aims to analyze community-based peace-building processes as paths of resistance and re-existence in territories historically marked by violence, subordination and vulnerability in Colombia and Brazil. It presents the conversation between the Humanitarian Refuge for Life, Peace and Decent Life process in Ciudad Bolívar in the south of Bogotá, the process of the Coletivo Cultura Zona Oeste in Rio de Janeiro, the process of the Youth(S) university extension project: urban interventions of art-culture in the territory also in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and the process of Grupo Juvenil Prodesarrollo de Micoahumado, Sur de Bolívar Colombia. We believe that a critical Psychosociology, based on the assumptions against decolonial hegemonies can support the reflection on the experiences of people and collectives that experience territories marked by a social inequality arising from colonizing process and that engender processes of struggle and re-existences in the face of death.

Keywords : Psychosociology; Culture of peace; Violence; Latin American epistemology.
