MARTINS, Victor de Oliveira  and  ARAUJO, Alana Ramos. Educational and Environmental Crisis in Paulo Freire and Enrique Leff: for a critical environmental pedagogy. Educ. Real. [online]. 2021, vol.46, n.2, e105854.  Epub May 24, 2021. ISSN 2175-6236.  https://doi.org/10.1590/2175-6236105854.

The article dialogues the contributions of Paulo Freire on the educational crisis with those of Enrique Leff on the environmental crisis. To this end, we analyze that both the context of education and the context of the environment reflect systemic, epistemological and civilizing problems, which produce unsustainable and hegemonic practices and thoughts. Thus, we start from bibliographic reviews between Paulo Freire and Enrique Leff, dialoguing with methodologies and theorical currents of historical dialectical materialism and decolonial thought. We verified that the environmental pedagogy, as a symbiotic result of the interrelation of the contributions of the studied theoretical frameworks, it works as a way to face the environmental crisis and natural resources and as a new civilizing model through criticality, complexity, transdisciplinarity, sustainability and justice.

Keywords : Environmental Education; Paulo Freire; Enrique Leff; Critical Pedagogy.
