The research was base on the adjustment of the DIS/BCN tool to analyze social impact and it was linked to the multi-method approach. Applying the autophotography strategy, cameras were given to five children from the district of Zumbi, the nearest location to PERF, and they were asked to individually photograph the six places they liked the most and the six places they liked the least in their community. Then, these children were interviewed individually and collectively about the photographs. Adult locals in Zumbi, residents of Zumbi/Rio do Fogo settlement, members of the State and Municipal government and representatives of the PERF were also interviewed with the aid of some of the pictures taken by the children and others that might trigger something to say, as a strategy called sample function. The five children presented positive image towards PERF; all of them chose to photograph it as one of places they liked. Adult population of Zumbi presented positive visual evaluation towards PERF. A small number of the interviewees were aware of the environmental and social benefits of wind energy production. Residents did not participate of the decision making process regarding PERF. They approved the project, especially because of the jobs provided during construction. Nowadays, PERF is something apart from their lives because it no longer provides jobs or any other interaction between the facility and the locals. Residents relate to the land, not with the facility. However, there is no evidence of rejection towards PERF, it is simply seen as something neutral to their lives. The low levels of education, traditional lack of social commitment and citizenship, and the experience accumulated by PERF?s planners and builders in other countries, may be contributing points to the fact that Zumbi residents did not oppose to PERF. It is clear that the country needs a legislation which seriously considers the psycho-social dimension involved in the implementation of wind farms === O prop?sito deste estudo foi investigar as implica??es s?cio-ambientais do recente (2006) primeiro parque e?lico de grande porte do Brasil, Parque E?lico de Rio do Fogo (PERF), sobre as comunidades vizinhas. O trabalho foi baseado em adapta??o da ferramenta DIS/BCN para an?lise de impactos sociais, vinculada a uma abordagem multim?todos. Conforme a estrat?gia da autofotografia, foram entregues c?meras fotogr?ficas para cinco crian?as do distrito de Zumbi, localidade mais pr?xima ao PERF e pedido a elas que, individualmente, fotografassem os seis lugares de que mais gostavam e os seis lugares de que menos gostavam em sua comunidade. Posteriormente, essas crian?as foram entrevistadas individual e coletivamente a respeito das fotografias. Tamb?m foram entrevistados residentes adultos de Zumbi, moradores do Assentamento Zumbi/Rio do Fogo, membros do governo estadual e municipal, e representantes do PERF, com aux?lio de algumas fotografias das crian?as e outras, que provocassem algo a dizer, em uma estrat?gia de investiga??o denominada fun??o de modelo. As cinco crian?as apresentaram imagem positiva do PERF; todas escolheram fotograf?-lo como um dos lugares de que gostavam. A popula??o adulta de Zumbi apresentou avalia??o visual positiva do PERF. Um n?mero reduzido de entrevistados conhecia os benef?cios ambientais e sociais da produ??o de energia e?lica. Os residentes n?o participaram do processo de decis?o a respeito do PERF; eles aprovaram a iniciativa especialmente por conta do fomento de empregos durante a constru??o. Atualmente, o PERF ? algo alheio ?s suas vidas por n?o haver mais ofertas de empregos, nem outra forma de intera??o moradores-empreendimento. Os residentes se relacionam com o terreno e n?o com o empreendimento. No entanto, n?o h? evid?ncias de rejei??o ao PERF, os moradores apenas o v?em como algo neutro ?s suas vidas O baixo n?vel educacional, a falta de vertebra??o social e a atua??o de uma empresa com larga experi?ncia na implanta??o de parques e?licos em outros pa?ses podem ser fatores que contribu?ram para a n?o oposi??o dos moradores de Zumbi ao PERF. Fica clara a falta que faz no pa?s uma legisla??o que considere seriamente a dimens?o psico-social envolvida na implanta??o de parques e?licos
