O uso do desenho animado “Guerreiros da Amazônia” como ferramenta de sensibilização ambiental no contexto da educação formal

Abstract

The abundance of natural resources in the Amazon has led to a process of occupation marked by intense pressure on the natural environment, generating situations of violence, disputes and territorial conflicts, highlighting the need for well-structured educational actions. To meet this demand, it is essential to use methodologies that place the student at the center of the learning process. In this sense, the present study proposes to analyze the relevance and effectiveness of using the cartoon “Guerreiros da Amazônia” (Warriors of the Amazon) as a tool for raising awareness among elementary school students through formal education, highlighting its importance as a pedagogical tool. Based on the parameters established by the BNCC, a systematic analysis of the narrative presented was carried out, considering its pedagogical dimension and socio-environmental relevance, in addition to discussing aspects pertinent to its practical application. The results of this research indicate that the cartoon represents an promising strategy for teaching and raising awareness among students, aligning with the general competencies and skills of the BNCC, demonstrating significant potential for strengthening critical environmental education.
