Da Educação Rural à "Educação na Floresta": um chamado para a geração de uma escola Amazônica

Abstract

The text contextualizes the problem of formal education in territories of traditional Amazonian gathering populations, generally recognized as conservation units. In the specific case, the context and experiences of the author in the discussion of the theme in the Chico Mendes Extractive Reserve, in Acre, were described. In addition to presenting the problem, the author presents some proposals from his point of view on how formal education for traditional non-indigenous Amazonian populations - especially schools in Gatherer Reserves - could be more adequate to the specificities, ontologies and epistemologies, and perspectives of future of these territories and populations.
