para caminharmos juntos,
passo a passo.

ser-vir

Estou aqui para “ser-vir” e acompanhar o “vir-a-ser” de cada mulher no processo de transformação que é a gravidez. Para testemunhar, acolher e apoiar o caminho único e individual de cada uma durante a gravidez, o parto e o pós-parto.

O meu objetivo é acompanhar em presença e contribuir para a criação de um espaço interno de segurança, a partir do qual cada mulher possa sentir-se mais conectada com o seu corpo, confiar nos seus recursos internos e fazer escolhas informadas.

Me proponho a ser um ouvido que escuta, uma mão que apoia quando é preciso, e uma ponte entre a mulher/casal e a informação que recebem dentro do sistema de saúde português. 

Complementarmente a base da anatomia e fisiologia construida durante a minha formação em Medicina, o bodywork e a experiência com o trabalho corporal permitem-me acrescentar uma outra dimensão no acompanhamento: através do toque, do movimento e da massagem, procuro ajudar a mulher a aliviar tensões, encontrar conforto e, sobretudo, desenvolver uma relação de maior segurança e confiança com o próprio corpo.

Ofereço massagem especializada para a gravidez e incluo os parceiros na aprendizagem de técnicas simples de toque, movimento e suporte físico, para que possam participar ativamente no cuidado e apoio à mãe.

Tenho particular afinidade com mulheres e casais que atravessam a gravidez, o parto e o pós-parto longe do seu lugar de origem. Eu própria vivi essa experiência e sei quão desafiante pode ser estar longe de uma rede de apoio familiar e ter de encontrar o nosso caminho dentro de uma nova cultura, numa nova língua e num sistema de saúde que não conhecemos. É também a partir dessa experiência que procuro oferecer um apoio que vá além da informação: estar presente, criar pontes e ajudar cada família a sentir-se mais acompanhada e segura durante esta transição.

Megan Wainwright has a BA in Anthropology and MSc and PhD in Medical Anthropology. She has worked as an independent research consultant since 2018 and lives in rural Portugal. She is passionate about research methods and the contribution anthropological and qualitative research approaches can make beyond disciplinary boundaries. Her primary role in MYNA is to develop methodologies for multi-sited research and cross-cultural analysis. She also brings to the team expertise in qualitative evidence synthesis and writing-up qualitative research for diverse audiences.

Zaira Tas graduated from her BA Liberal Arts and Sciences: Global Challenges in 2022 and has focused her studies on environmental sustainability and development. She has a particular interest in how the environment and human society interact and affect one another. She joined the MYNA team as a consultant, working on a systematic literature review examining the relationship between religious changes and environmental changes in dryland areas. She also accompanied team members on a recent field trip to Kenya, where she assisted with project management and interviews.

Angela Kronenburg García is an anthropologist, whose work has focused on resource access and land-use change in African drylands. She contributes to the MYNA project with case-studies in Mozambique and Kenya. In northern Mozambique, she explores how the expansion of Christian commercial farming is changing land use in a region that is partly Muslim and where the local population largely depends on small-scale (subsistent) farming for a living. In Kenya, she studies how the re-start of individual land demarcation, the proliferation of Evangelical churches and changes in Maasai culture connect in Loita.

Troy Sternberg Extensive travel led to Troy’s interest in desert regions, environments and people. Research focuses on extreme climate hazards (drought, dzud), environments (water, steppe vegetation, desertification) and social dynamics (pastoralists, social-environmental interaction, religion and environmental change, mining and communities).

Joana Roque de Pinho is an ecologist and environmental anthropologist whose research focuses on changing West and East African sub-humid and dryland social-ecological systems; and how members of rural natural-resource reliant communities experience and understand environmental changes. She is most passionate about collaborating directly with rural community members as collaborative researchers/visual ethnographers through participatory visual research methodologies. For the MYNA project, she explores the intersection of religious transformations with livelihoods, land tenure/use changes and climatic instability. She contributes a multi-sited Kenyan case-study that explores the neglected role of religion Christianity in Maasailand’s social-ecological dynamics, and participates in the Mongolia and Mozambique case studies.
