JUSTEN, Liana Márcia. Trajetórias de um grupo interinstitucional em um programa de formação de educadores ambientais no estado do Paraná (1997-2002). Educ. Rev. [online]. 2006, n.27, pp.129-145. ISSN 0104-4060.

The importance of recording education experiences of environmental teachers has motivated this research about the performance of a group of teachers and environmental technicians, in a program developed in the State of Paraná (1997-2002). The integration of government proposals of EE (Environmental Education) developed at public schools and communities, had the objective of implementing the environment programs coordinated by the state government, partnered with the cities, at the 1995/1998 and 1999/2002 administrations. For the united action of state secretariats of Education and Environment and Water Resources, inter-institutional teams of EE, formed by teachers and environmental technicians, were created. From the perceptions of the two groups of participants on their affective and professional interactions, on conceptual differences and program effectiveness, came the attempt to systematize relevant aspects of this singular process of formation of environmental educators, promoted at the political and administrative spheres, recognizing basic indicatives for the performance of inter-institutional teams and subsidizing the reflection about the formation processes of EE. The united action of teachers and environmental technicians consisted in an experience on the ground of diversity, enabling them to recognize otherness, to exercise the dialog between sciences and practices, to live together with dissent and to search inclusive solutions for the environmental questions - basic principles of EA.
