Abstract

Aiming to meet the current teaching needs for Environmental Education that gained visibility with the Rio 92 conference, the Santos Environment Secretariat, in partnership with the São Paulo State Water Resources Fund (FEHIDRO) made it possible to carry out the Young Researchers Project , whose objective is to make students from three schools in the municipal education network protagonists in environmental actions in the community in which they live, supporting a critical vision and passing on responsibility to them as actors of change in the socio-environmental context where they live.
