Abstract: In this communication, we propose a preliminary approach of efforts to build women's associations in Portugal Sao Tome and its implications in shaping gender relations. This associative movement of women São Tomé is traced by reference to the common origin and the stories of difficulties experienced in Lisbon. Such movement of voluntary mutual help gives meaning to the word community, while bond between individuals with a common origin in a distant land. But this associative movement will also have consequences on the modeling of roles and social trajectories.
