Educação ambiental nas reservas extrativistas da Microrregião Bragantina.

Abstract

Environmental Education (EA) is an indispensable tool for building a more just and responsible society with regard to the environment. In Conservation Units, especially those of Sustainable Use where the presence of traditional populations is allowed, the implementation of this tool becomes even more urgent and necessary, so that sustainability in the use of natural resources is guaranteed by all. Therefore, this monograph has as main objective to investigate the occurrence of EE actions in four Marine Extractive Reserves (RESEX-Mar) located in the Microregion Bragantina, Pará, in the last five years. For this, a bibliographical survey was carried out through research on the Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo), Journal Portal of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES) and Google Scholar platforms. In all, seven relevant files were selected for analysis, including five articles, a Course Completion Work (TCC) and a Master's Dissertation. Through the results, it was found that the Extractive Reserve that has the most publications on the subject is the RESEX-Mar Caeté-Taperaçu, followed by the RESEX-Mar de Tracuateua. However, the insertion of educational practices aimed at the conservation of natural resources present in the Units under study is still considered unsatisfactory, taking into account the reduced amount of research found. Furthermore, it was possible to observe the existence of a gap due to the absence of indexed publications in the years 2021 and 2023. This points to a certain demand for carrying out more research that may contribute to the better management of these spaces, mainly, in the Araí-Peroba Marine Extractive Reserve, where no results were found.
