ANAIS - 1ª Semana de Geografia - Univasf: educação, capital, território e os conflitos socioambientais no Centro Norte Baiano

Abstract

This material presents the scientific proceedings from the 1st Geography Week of UNIVASF, held in person at the Senhor do Bonfim campus, Bahia, from May 24th to 26th, 2023. Organized by the Geography Department (CGEO), the event marked the Professional Geographer's Day and the program's anniversary under the central theme: "Education, Capital, Territory, and socio-environmental conflicts in the North-Central Region of Bahia". The content is organized into thematic axes that reflect regional research and extension efforts: Education and Teaching: centers on teacher training through programs like PIBID and Pedagogical Residency, while proposing innovative didactic tools such as physical models (maquetes), cordel literature, and cinema to teach geographical concepts. Society and Territory: addresses the geography of aging, urban accessibility, and identity within traditional communities, specifically the Quilombolas of Tijuaçu and "Fundo de Pasto" territories. Environment and Planning: includes studies on geoconservation, spring mapping, the impact of oil spills on the Bahia coast, and paleoenvironmental analyses in the Serra da Capivara National Park. Capital, Labor, and Conflicts: discusses the agrarian question, the impacts of mining in Brazil, and production relations within the Bahia sertão. The publication highlights the Department's commitment to robust and critical academic training, bridging university knowledge with the practical and social challenges of the Brazilian semi-arid region.
