Le résumé fourni par la source

The study assesses the contribution of environmental education practices to the lives of people with intellectual disabilities served by APAE - Barcarena through environmental education workshops that are part of the project “Eco-efficient Education: School, Society, Environment and Sustainability”, developed through a partnership between the Federal Rural University of the Amazon (UFRA), through the Institute of Agricultural Sciences (ICA) and the Amazon Center for Accessibility, Inclusion and Technology (ACESSAR), and the Empresa Navegações Unidas Tapajós (Unitapajós). The great challenge facing humanity is to reduce man's predatory action on natural resources and environmental education practices are important tools in the process of raising awareness and including people with intellectual disabilities to achieve harmony between man and nature with mutual benefits. In this context, a qualitative research was conducted through a bibliographic survey and application of a questionnaire with questions related to the topic. The results show that the use of environmental education practices to promote socio-educational inclusion proved to be an important tool in the inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities, providing the development of motor coordination, social inclusion and improvements in daily practices and healthy eating.
