SILVEIRA, Eduardo. A arte do encontro: a educação estética ambiental atuando com o Teatro do Oprimido. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2009, vol.25, n.03, pp.369-394. ISSN 0102-4698.

The environmental education is aimed at seeking new forms of relationship between human beings and nature. Although based on an ethical position, it carries the difficulties imposed by a plaster model of education, based on the logic of technical-scientific rationality that permeates society. In an attempt to overcome such condition we propose the aesthetic environmental education as a way of human beings to relate with the world they inhabit while posing the challenge to lead the reunion with their sensitive, emotional and poetic dimensions. Having this field as a basis, we, theoretically, reflect on the inclusion of an artistic proposal as a means of achieving the necessary goals for the environmental education. In the field of art, we turn to the theater of the oppressed, which has the goal of theater democratization, as an organic activity of human beings. We have identified in it approximations to the principles and objectives sought by the aesthetic environmental education.
