In Brazil's development strategy was driven by conceptual mechanisms defined as territorial development policies. These policies have been implemented in many rural areas, aiming to direct resources to areas of poor development, which entered through the articulation of social actors in context, they would present proposals for feasible actions that were confluent for overcoming social and economic inequalities. The region of Paraiba Seridó, social research locus, was included in 2010 in the framework of this national policy, through the articulation of social actors, and they are representatives of government and civil society, with the aim to converge to the territory, public policies seen as essential to the development pled strategy, such as the Food Acquisition Program - PAA, National Policy for Rural Technical Assistance - PNATER, Harvest Plan Guarantee Safra, National Program for Strengthening Family Agriculture - PRONAF, among others. From the configuration outlined is stated that the research aims to analyze the process of articulation of social actors in Rural Territory Seridó Paraiba, and its contribution to the construction of public policies to promote sustainable regional development. To develop the research function of the object of study and goals we opted for a methodological way contemplating secondary data collection, performed by literature search with a contextual literature on the topic, also used primary data gathered empirically from collection of reports and interviews, focused on the instance of action of social actors, the Forum of Sustainable Territorial Development Seridó Paraiba, setting in which the interaction of these social actors intertwines. Thus, research is exploratory and descriptive, and qualitative and quantitative nature, using as research instrument to nonparticipant observation and semi-structured interview. The results show that the analyzed geographic divisions is one of the most underdeveloped of the semiarid northeast, confirming the need for the implementation of development strategies such as the one investigated in this work out. These strategies, however have not been able, yet, to signal the prospect of overcoming this stage of social and economic lethargy starvation, due to the same mechanisms to configure development exogenous to the territory, reflecting the advocacy of a model for implementing public policy imposed by governmental powers that be at the expense of strategies based on the collective construction of territorialized and scope of these mechanisms with a view to overcoming underdevelopment rooted in Seridó Paraiba. However, it appears that the process of articulation of social actors underway, represents an important advance for designing a new model of social intervention, when considering that incipient public authorities and civil society together were able to erect a space which metamorphosed into an arena for debates and propositions, where several actions to attempt to land development could be discussed, something unheard of in this space, and that in the long term may represent an effective strategy to overcome socioeconomic verifiable delay in this region.
