RESUMO

This research aims to contribute to the expansion in knowledge of the educational processes directed at the growth of the individual and collective action potential using emancipator environmental education. We presumed that the development of educational actions related to the environmental issue - based on the principles of participation, reflection and respect towards the environment in which one lives – contributes to the action potential related to attitude shifting in youth groups. Therefore, an intervention research was conducted with the “Environmental Diagnosis of the Vegetal Covertures and Degradation Focuses of the Piracicamirim River associated with Environmental Education through the Elaboration of Agenda 21 at the Jardim Oriente district” project, executed in the Piracicamirim River watershed (Piracicaba, SP). The research presented in this dissertation was conducted by educational intervention involving the youth population in the process of diagnosis, planning, intervention and assessment of the actions targeting improvement in the quality of life of Jardim Oriente and in the environment surrounding the Piracicamirim River. This analysis allowed the clear deduction that the social group is conditioned by the alertness of the individuals and the institutional mediations, on the development of a culture of social relations. Another main point for the group process and for the overcoming of the existing contradictions was the necessity of the group to analyse itself. Thereby, the quest in this process of the research occured on the group analysis, creating room for discussion, action, evaluation, self-evaluation and recreation of the youngster’s wishes within the group itself. Moreover, the space established through the group’s praxis, allowed the development of educational practices related to the environmental issue, contributing to the action potential and attitude shifting in the focused youth group.
