Usually translated as “lived experience,” the Russian term involves life in transformation and is a prism that refracts the unique combination of social and individual characteristics in the process of development.

Abstract
This chapter discusses the development of funds of perezhivanie in participants of the Brincadas Project, a response to the appalling experiences of COVID-19 in Brazil organized by the Research Group Language in Activities in School Contexts. The project, grounded on critical collaborative research, decolonial studies, and Vygotskian and Freirean's body of works, involves participants' critical, intentional, and engaged actions to individually and collectively recreate ways of “producing life” and research together. The authors focus on two activities for this work: a cine club with the indigenous community Tekoa Pyau and a workshop session on ag(e)ing. Both activities exemplify the development and expansion of participants' funds of perezhivanie while expressing how these resources for “talking back” may significantly impact society.
