PEREIRA, Heloisa Corrêa et al. Rural-urban migration caused by educational needs in the Middle Solimões, Amazonas. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2022, vol.27, e270029.  Epub Apr 13, 2022. ISSN 1809-449X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/s1413-24782022270029.

This paper aims to analyze the relationship between rural-urban migration and education in the context of a traditional riverside population of the Amanã Sustainable Development Reserve (Reserva de Desenvolvimento Sustentável Amanã), in the State of Amazonas, Brazil. This paper is also aimed at identifying how the context of migration in the conservation unit differs from other studies related to educational inequalities. Quantitative data Demographic and Economic Monitoring System the Mamirauá Sustainable Development Institute (Sistema de Monitoramento Demográfico e Econômico do Instituto de Desenvolvimento Sustentável Mamirauá) were used to compare the changes in the migratory and educational context of 69 rural locations in the Amanã Sustainable Development Reserve, 568 households in 2011 and 676 in 2018. The results showed an increase of 71% in rural-urban migration due to educational factors, and a change in the educational profile of residents, highlighting a new demand for education in the area. The unmet educational need has influenced the migratory decisions of the residents, a consequence of the distance between educational policies and the reality of the rural Amazon region.

Keywords : rural education; educational policies; rural-urban displacement; conservation unit.
