The goal of this paper was to analyze the empowerment process of the leader‟s women of the rural workers (masculine and female) from Marabá. For this research, the empowerment was considered as an implication of power on the economic, personal, social and political dimensions. The methodology covered bibliographic and documental research and camp research. The data collected occurred by: a) Documental research on the collection of the union researched and of the collection of the Pastoral Land Commission (CPT). b) Camp research, through non-directed interview with 18 people; 11 women and 07 men. With the development of the research, was identified that the women of the STTR from Marabá partipated of struggles and although they achieved achievements, were victims of discrimination and domestic violence in the scope and course of the union militancy. This is a reflex of the processual character of the empowerment, being this process complex and marked by contradictions, advances and retries. The fight against the domestically violence was one of the most cited indicators of empowerment on the interviews realized in all its forms: physical, psychological, sexual, patrimonial and moral. The principal challenge of the women is to continue fighting through a permanent agenda for overcome the domestic violence and the discrimination, ensuring that a partnership and respect between the women and men of the union surveyed.
