Ateliês de insurgência para o ensino de ciências: ideias para uma reconciliação com a natureza a partir de Daniel Munduruku

Abstract

I understand human-nature relations today as being imbued with utilitarianism and anthropocentric that foster ways of being in the world that are disconnected from natural dynamics. Science Teaching, from this perspective, has combined with the distancing of humans from nature, as they are trapped in monolithic and hegemonic narratives and discourses of modern sciences based on scientism and reductionism of natural processes, phenomena and beings. However, there are cultures and people that have not allowed this distancing, since their ontologies closest to a relational logic understand and perceive themselves as belonging to nature, making any epistemic construction and practice dissociated from this impossible. Therefore, I reflect on whether it would be possible to learn and dialogue in Science Teaching with these ontologies about understandings about nature that are more intertwined with the human. To this end, my research objective is to create insurgency workshops, spaces for horizontal dialogues between Sciences and Traditional Knowledge, based on the knowledge of Daniel Munduruku, as plural training spaces for Science Teaching. To answer this objective, I adopt qualitative research with a narrative approach as a methodological path based on the paradigmatic, epistemic and political matrices of decolonial studies.
