In this article, we look at the South-South axis women, their approaches and distances, based on categories of analysis that have as a sovereignty and food and nutritional security. We defend the importance of an intersectional analysis both from the point of view of the Mukheristas, the way women who trade between Maputo, (Mozambique) and Johannesburg (South Africa) are called and from the perspective of women from the Cinta Vermelha-Jundiba village, living in the semiarid region of the Jequitinhonha Valley in Brazil. It will be observed how by trading clothesin the case of the Mozambican women andseeds for the Brazilians, these women braid their survival.

Keywords : Food security; Gender relations; Social markers of difference; Mukheristas/Mozambique; Cinta Vermelha-Jundiba/Brazil.
