Abstract: The recruitment of women by drug traffickers is increasingly common in the Amazon region, where the trafficking route passes through the Amazonian rivers, reaching large urban centers. In the city of Santarém, in the state of Pará, the geographical location of the city facilitates the flow of narcotics to other regions of the country. For this reason, large police operations to combat drug trafficking are common in the region. In this context, women become key players in this illicit scheme, and due to financial conditions or even as a substitute for their husbands, who are usually arrested by the police, they become involved in the crime and end up joining the prison population of the local detention center, the CRF, in the city of Santarém. This study, entitled "Drug Trafficking and Female Incarceration in Santarém-PA," will analyze the crime of drug trafficking committed by women, the reasons and motives that led to their illegality, and discuss the increase in the prison population in Brazil for crimes directly related to drug trafficking. The methodology used in this research consisted of documentary and theoretical research, as well as empirical analysis. Quantitative research methods were also employed, namely, the analysis of numerical and percentage graphs with questions related to the proposed theme.
