Abstract(s)
O cooperativismo nos países em desenvolvimento tem um impacto muito significativo, visto que é uma das chaves para a redução da pobreza. E em São Tomé e Príncipe não é exceção. Este trabalho pretende caraterizar o setor pecuário, descrever o processo histórico de criação e consolidação das cooperativas/associações pecuárias na ilha de S. Tomé e analisar o impacto socioeconómico destas organizações na qualidade de vida dos seus membros e na viabilidade das suas explorações agropecuárias. Para tal recorreu-se à técnica de amostragem intencional para a recolha de dados junto dos produtores, tentando escolher produtores mais ativos e com pagamento de quotas regularizado, além de estarem distribuídos por todos os distritos da ilha. O tratamento e análise de dados foram efetuados em Excel. A análise dos dados permite afirmar que 57% dos produtores melhorou a sua qualidade de vida, identificando diversos benefícios relativamente à participação nesta estrutura, realce para o aumento do rendimento obtido, e 84% acredita que a cooperativa desempenha um papel crucial na melhoria das condições de vida de todos os produtores membros, contribuindo para o acesso a melhores condições de educação, saúde e habitação. Através dos resultados obtidos, percebeu-se que as cooperativas pecuárias contribuem com muitos benefícios para os produtores associados e melhoram a sua qualidade e condições de vida, além de contribuírem para o desenvolvimento de toda a comunidade. No entanto, é preciso, ainda conduzir estudos relativamente à perpetuação das cooperativas no tempo e sua sustentabilidade.

Data analysis allows us to state that 57% of producers improved their quality of life, identifying several benefits regarding participation in this structure, highlighting the increase in income obtained, and 84% believe that the cooperative plays a crucial role in improving conditions of living conditions for all member producers, contributing to access to better education, health and housing conditions.Through the results obtained, it was clear that livestock cooperatives bring many benefits to associated producers and improve their quality and living conditions, in addition to contributing to the development of the entire community. However, it is still necessary to conduct studies regarding the perpetuation of cooperatives over time and their sustainability.
