Abstract

Handicrafts have historically always been practiced in Paraná Coast, Brazil, being a source of income for dozens of families, however this scenario has undergone profound changes with the pandemic of the New Coronavirus (COVID-19), but no studies were found that could reveal the changes caused among artisans as a result of the pandemic. Thus, descriptive exploratory research was carried out with 35 artisans residing on the Coast of Paraná. Women were the majority among the investigated group (65.7%) with an average age of 54 years old. The study revealed that in the perception of the interviewees it is possible to notice the recovery of the impacts caused by the pandemic on the family budget, with the increase in the income obtained from the sale of handicrafts, however in the opinion of the majority of the interviewees (68.57%) the recovery could have been accelerated if there were public policies for easy access to artisans. The study revealed that in Paraná Coast, after the pandemic of the New Coronavirus, there was a reduction in jobs and regional income, and it consequently affected family income and that, in the face of so many deaths, the class of widowed, black or brown women emerged in the investigated sample. The lives of these women are marked by precariousness and they feel more strongly the impacts of segregation due to the need to provide for all family needs by themselves.
