Abstract

The Yacyreta Binational Entity dam has produced a series of important impacts in the areas of affectation of the dam. This investigation study was made in the Residential Complex Arroyo Pork, with a population of 1194 families already transferred and relocated. Surveys were realized (on sampling of 5%), focal groups and interviews about social aspects, economic and environmental caused by the dam to the families, according their own perception as relocated families The data obtained through the works of field were processed resorting to statistic techniques and triangulation. The results obtained show that relevant impacts in the new environment are: the serious rupture of the widespread family and neighbor network, the changes of conduct in the family, the insecurity sensation, the permanent claim of attention for health, education and employment, the difficult access to the natural resources, the distance to the urban center, and the great frustration showed by the settlers comparing the present situation with the previous habitat.
