Amazon environmental education initiatives

Overview

Educational and awareness efforts in the Amazon region have focused on promoting socio-environmental responsibility and addressing the climate crisis.

In Marabá, the REPAM Committee of the Diocese of Marabá organized discussions for students at Colégio Martinho Mota. The initiative utilized the ‘Amazoniza-te’ and ‘Eu Voto pela Amazônia’ campaigns to encourage the protection of regional territories. Local initiatives regarding tree planting and vegetation preservation were also highlighted as methods to combat environmental challenges.

Subsequent efforts expanded into journalism and curriculum integration. In Parintins, students from the Federal University of Amazonas launched the “Climate Crisis in the Amazon” series on the “Amazônia Ribeirinha” educational channel, reporting on El Niño, droughts, and wildfires. Meanwhile, in Porto Velho, the “Consciência Limpa” panel worked to integrate environmental education, conscious consumption, and sustainable practices into school curricula for children and youth.
