Advances driven by popular demands supports the stance for a debate in favor of training that meets the requirements of students of Youth and Adult Education (EJA). In this context, this study aims to analyze how the training of EJA students can contribute to their active participation in social issues. It is a descriptive research, with a qualitative approach, carried out from 2018 to 2019. Regarding data treatment, content analysis was used, thus creating categories a priori and a posteriori in line with the objectives of the research and according to the similarity of the participants' responses. The subjects of the research were students and teachers of EJA, from schools of the Municipal Education Network of Porto Velho - RO. The results showed that systematized knowledge can provide EJA students with active participation in situations involving their rights and duties. From this perspective, it is concluded that it is necessary that their training is effective with the problematization of the contents, aligned with the real sociocultural reality of the students and with the improvement of the material working conditions in this modality of teaching.
