The research aimed to understand the contributions of the formative process of the Bachelor's Degree in Rural Education (LEdoC) at the Federal University of Pará (UFPA) Abaetetuba Campus, to the promotion of selforganization of young riverside graduates of this course in their territories, considering the analysis of social praxis in different socio-professional and community spaces. The research is anchored in dialectical historical materialism and worked with the categories of historicity, contradiction and totality, essential for the construction of analyses guided by content analysis (Bardin, 2011), as a systematic and objective technique for understanding and inferences from a set of data. Exploring and understanding the meaning of what was collected, going beyond the mere description of the facts, in the search for the essence of the object scrutinized. The proposal was essential to listen to and give visibility to the story of young riverside women who live on the banks of rivers in Northern Brazil, located north of the state of Pará, in the Lower Tocantins region - an Amazonian territory, defined as a political space par excellence, a field of action and power, where certain social relations are carried out, effectively seen in their complexity as pointed out by Molina et. al. (2004), thus considering the category of territory. The importance of these dialogues is understood to highlight the voices of women who teach us about feminism as a field of study and power relations in accordance with Flávia Biroli (2014, 2018, 2020); Saffioti (1987, 2013) and Gerda Lerner (2019) for Rural Education and educator training Molina (2012, 2017), Caldart (2002, 2010), Freitas (2002). Research on the formation and selforganization of young riverside dwellers, class struggle, territory and praxis, enabled reflections on a reality that today involves a portion of the working class made up of young riverside dwellers, who are part of social movements and nurture youth, as a result of the social and political organization of the interests and desires of rural people.
