The document outlines a character profile for a 62-year-old retired agricultural worker living in the marginal urban neighbourhood of Barrio Inundado. The persona is designed to highlight the specific vulnerabilities of elderly, less mobile residents during floods, noting that flooding ruins "furniture and food supplies" and cuts off "freshwater supplies". It emphasizes the social barriers to participation, stating that "people are prejudiced against an older peasant woman", while expressing interest in an "organised network of volunteers" to provide and receive practical help during future flood events.

• The persona experiences significant physical and social barriers to community participation, including limited mobility and perceived prejudice based on age and background.
• Flooding in the Barrio Inundado neighbourhood causes the loss of food and furniture, disrupts freshwater access, and hinders family access to the resident.
