Educação diferenciada e turismo de base comunitária nos territórios caiçaras de Paraty (RJ)

Abstract

The schools of caiçara communities in "Praia do sono" and "Pouso da Cajaíba", located in Paraty (RJ), set off in the year of 2016 to offer elementary school II, with the purpose of an applied education to its realities. This initiative happens in a period that the communities are seeking new ways to develop tourism. Beyond the research of bibliographic references and secondary data, there was participation in events related to the theme and the realization of semi-structured interviews with representatives that have been discussing the curricular proposal and its impacts on the territory. The research shows that the process that has been suggested by means of the differentiated education can contribute to the organization of community-based tourism, focused in questions like autonomy and belonging.
