Todavia, grande parte da popula??o ainda n?o possui o devido a-cesso ? ?gua. As pol?ticas p?blicas e programas governamentais voltados para essa regi?o, ainda est?o distantes de promover a descentraliza??o para a democratiza??o do acesso ? ?gua. Historicamente, a a??o estatal, quando presente, tratou de priorizar a constru??o de grandes obras de reservat?rios de ?gua, que acabaram fortalecendo a chamada ?ind?stria da seca?. No final da d?cada de 1990, em meio a um grande per?odo de estiagem na regi?o semi?rida brasi-leira, diversas entidades da sociedade civil se juntam para criar a Articula??o Semi?rido Bra-sileiro (ASA), institui??o cujo objetivo ? coordenar a??es de conviv?ncia com o semi?rido, dentre elas, o de democratizar o acesso ? ?gua, que se fez principalmente por meio da implan-ta??o do Programa Um Milh?o de Cisternas (P1MC) a partir do uso de Tecnologias Sociais. A proposta prev? a constru??o de cisternas para capta??o e armazenamento de ?guas pluviais, com o objetivo de abastecimento humano. Esta a??o tem sido objeto de in?meros debates acad?micos e pol?ticos que buscam destacar os limites e as possibilidades dessa pol?tica. As-sim, objetivou-se com esta pesquisa realizar uma an?lise da pol?tica p?blica P1MC j? implan-tada e, outras em fase de implanta??o, com o prop?sito de compreender sua capacidade en-quanto estrat?gias de conviv?ncia com o semi?rido para os agricultores, agricultoras e mora-dores da zona rural de Apodi-RN. A pesquisa possui natureza qualitativa, com realiza??o de entrevistas semiestruturadas, feitas com os t?cnicos ligados ? Coordena??o da ASA Potiguar, bem como, com os beneficiados da pol?tica p?blica P1MC. Os resultados encontrados infor-mam que h? necessidade de complementariedade ao Programa, isto ?, o funcionamento do P1MC est? vinculado a exist?ncias de chuvas na regi?o em que est? implantado, n?o havendo chuvas e/ou se estas forem em menor quantidade, ser? necess?rio promover o acesso ? ?gua para as fam?lias beneficiadas de outras maneiras. Verificou-se tamb?m que o Programa P1MC contribui na diminui??o da penosidade do trabalho das mulheres, tendo em vista que n?o ? mais necess?rio ir para outras localidades conseguir ?gua para consumo da fam?lia; o Progra-ma P1+2 contribui tamb?m para manter pequenos cultivos na resid?ncia dos beneficiados; a implanta??o dos Programas propiciou maior organiza??o, pois promoveu a cria??o de Associ-a??es Comunit?rias em comunidades que n?o possu?am. / The Brazilian semi-arid region that occupies significantly the Northeast portion is one of the most populated areas of Brazil. However, much of the population still doesn?t have access to water. Public policies and government programs aimed at this region are still far from pro-moting decentralization for the democratization of access to water. Historically, State action, when present, tried to prioritize the construction of large works of water reservoirs, which ended up strengthening the so-called "drought industry". At the end of the 1990s, in the midst of a great period of drought in the Brazilian semi-arid region, several civil society entities come together to create the Articulation of the Brazilian Semi-Arid (ASA). The institution was to coordinate actions to coexist with the Semi-Arid region among them and to democra-tize access to water, which was done mainly through the implementation of the One Million Cisterns (P1MC) Program. The proposal provided for the construction of cisterns to capture and store rainwater, with the objective of human supply. This action has been the object of numerous academic and political debates that seek to highlight the limits and possibilities of this policy. Thus, the objective of this research was to carry out an analysis of the P1MC pub-lic policy already in place and, in the implementation phase, with the purpose of understand-ing its capacity as strategies for coexistence with the semi-arid region for farmers, farmers and rural dwellers. Apodi-RN. The research has a qualitative nature, with semi-structured interviews with the technicians linked to the Coordination of ASA Potiguar, as well as with the beneficiaries of the P1MC public policy. The results indicate the program is dependent upon rainfall in the region. If there is little or no rainfall the P1MC is less effective therefore it is necessary to promote access to water for beneficiary families in other ways. It was also found that the P1MC Program contributes to the reduction of the painfulness of women's work, since it is no longer necessary to go to other localities to obtain water for consumption by the family; The P1 + 2 Program also contributes to maintaining small crops in the benefi-ciaries' homes; The implementation of the Programs provided greater organization, as it pro-moted the creation of Community Associations in communities that did not have.
