Pesquisa-ação crítico-colaborativa com ênfase na Educação ambiental e Mudanças Climáticas

Abstract

Abstract: Despite successive warnings from scientists about the causes and consequences of climate change, in practice what is observed in Brazil is that a large part of civil society, including students and teachers of basic education and higher education, remain aloof and distant of debate and decision-making. Given this context, the importance of education is clear as an essential strategy for each citizen to have access to scientific knowledge, socio-environmental dilemmas and ongoing policies and build attitudes, skills, values ​​and engagement to face climate change. The main objective of this extension project is to establish a network of collaborative action-research work (Pollen for the Climate Network), among members of the Group for Study, Research and Dissemination of Science and Biology Teaching and Environmental Education (Seminare) UEM, made up of professors, undergraduates and graduate students, as well as professors from some higher education institutions from other public universities in Paraná, with Environmental Education and Climate Change as an integrating theme. The various actions carried out in the established goals, in the first two years of the project, made it possible for the participants, in a network, to experience epistemological, curricular and didactic-pedagogical advances to work on the theme of climate change from the perspective of Environmental Education, in the various educational spaces of action.
