Abstract

The article discusses the possibilities and actions of social movements and traditional communities in protecting the environment in the Recôncavo da Bahia through interventions of the Federal University of the Recôncavo da Bahia, UFRB. As a territory of identity, the Recôncavo is home to niches for social movements and diverse communities. With their bodies, educational actions, and cultures, they develop actions ranging from the preservation of heritage to the struggle for natural spaces for cultural survival, acting together with the state apparatus to preserve and protect the environment. Methodologically, a bibliographic review was carried out with a study of education, environment, and physical education; as a result, new reflections that may help society preserve the environment with sustainability are proposed. The main results point to strengthening institutional and community configurations, the visualization of collectives and minority groups, and the generation of democratic platforms for change based on the dialogue between different knowledge and world visions. We conclude with the possibility of disciplinary integration and the need for further studies.
