Resumo
The general objective of this research was to evaluate the actions of Environmental Education (EE) put into practice in communities surrounding Itaúnas State Park – PEI, Conceição da Barra-ES. The following studies were specifically conducted: (1) collection and characterization of environmental education actions carried out by schools and private and public institutions; (2) residents' views on range of environmental education activities offered (formal and not-formal). Based on exploratory research, actions and programs of environmental education developed in Itaúnas region, inside schools and focused on the population in general were gathered. Participants from four communities took part in the research: 19 residents, 11 teachers and 10 students (elementary and high school) from three institutions. Data on the community perception of EA offering (formal and not-formal) was collected through semi-structured interviews, and the records of actions performed were obtained by means of interviews with public managers and documental analysis. Data collection was made from November, 2014 to July, 2015. Research showed that the process of documenting, registering and filing EE activities has not been efficient, since only 5 projects records could be found, what made it impossible to analyse properly the characteristics of activities done. On the other hand, after the interviews different socio-environmental problems that have been faced by EE emerged, as well as the agents responsible for the actions. In general, research found out that EE in course in the communities around PEI, both formal and not-formal, has been characterized by specific activities. Moreover, is was noticeable the dissatisfaction of communities with the actual offering of long-lasting projects which respond to local socio-environmental demands. The results show the path followed by EE in the surroundings of PEI and will stimulate discussions about its role in the communities on the borders of Conservation Unities.
