Projeto de vida dos jovens camponeses: um olhar sobre a comunidade Ernesto Che Guevara no assentamento Antônio Conselheiro

Abstract

The dreams of rural youth are not being seen with different eyes than those of young people in urban areas. This prevents them from taking root in their culture, which is often discredited. Young people end up not having opportunities for leisure, health, study, work, among others, such as access to information, technologies within the Settlement. Even with all these difficulties, we still have several young people who stayed in the field. The objective of this work is to understand the relationship established between the life projects of young peasants from the Antônio Conselheiro Settlement and rural education put into practice in the region, as well as its repercussions on family/campesino agriculture. The research was carried out in the community of the Ernesto Che Guevara school of Assentamento Antônio Conselheiro, in Tangará da Serra-MT. Through bibliographical studies observing the question of the concepts of what is Rural Education and after the bibliographical research, a field research was carried out with an interview using a questionnaire aimed at young people from the countryside. Thus, it was possible to understand the importance of education in the countryside for the permanence of young people in the countryside; discuss the reasons that lead young people to leave or remain in the countryside, in addition to the perspective of young people to remain in the countryside, specifically those residing in the Antônio Conselheiro Settlement.
