CARVALHO, Sandra Maria Gadelha de; MENDES, José Ernandi  and  AMORIM, Jamira Lopes de. UNIVERSITY, TERRITORIAL DEVELOPMENT AND RURAL EDUCATION IN THE JAGUARIBE VALLEY. Revista da FAEEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.61, pp.52-67.  Epub Oct 18, 2021. ISSN 2358-0194.  https://doi.org/10.21879/faeeba2358-0194.2020.v30.n61.p52-67.

This paper aims at analyzing the reverberations, in terms of teaching, research and extracurricular activities, of rural education projects developed in the Vale do Jaguaribe region by teachers and students of the State University of Ceará (UECE). As reference for analysis of the present work served dissertations, monographs and doctoral theses on the region since 2008, with research objects addressing both rural education and territorial development. As a result it was found that rural education actions in partnership with the local Landless Rural Workers Movement (MST) strengthened the struggle for land, as well as the political and productive organization. In this way, they influence the redesign of the territory with regard to boosting family farming, the agroecological transition and access to education, and even reflect on the project of teacher training and the expansion of University itself.

Keywords : Rural education; Territorial development; Jaguaribe Valley; MST; UECE.
