RESUMO

A research technique is built based on educational process that aims public involvement to develop subsidies for better conditions of the quality life for the community, as well as the conservation of natural, historical and cultural resources of the Itapety Mountain Range – a Atlantic Forest area, located the municipality of Mogi das Cruzes, São Paulo State, Brazil. Different sectors of civil society and government are involved to create a local Agenda 21. This situation permits the development of a qualitative research, resulting in a series of actions that aims to create a stronger conscientiousness of the importance of natural resources and the quality of life. The level of comprehension of local residents of Itapety Mountain Range about their environment and the ways and reasons of participation of other people in the process of building up the Agenda 21 were analised. The result of this analysis shows the existence of a wide range of opinions, perceptions and sugestions, defined as technical, academical, political and popular views. These views interwoved in a reflexive approach should produce a viable construction of the local Agenda 21.
