Public Policies in Youth and Adult Education

Through an analysis of the relevant legislation - LDB 9394/96, CNE/CEB Opinion 11/2000, the National Education Plan and the 1988 Federal Constitution, we sought to analyze the results achieved by the Solidarity Literacy Program (PAS) in conjunction with the Federal University of Santa Maria - UFSM, in the process of transforming popular literacy teachers. The municipalities participating in this research are partners of the University and PAS. The pedagogical activities were carried out in Piau?, in the Semi-Arid Region (municipalities of Caldeir?o Grande do Piau?, Fronteiras, Pio IX and S?o Juli?o). Through the application of a questionnaire and participant observation, it was found that the literacy learners and the literacy teachers consider that it is through education that they will be able to participate more meaningfully in their communities and articulate actions aimed at changing their political and socio-cultural context. Therefore, the Solidarity Literacy Program has been presented as a way of reducing illiteracy rates in Brazil, a country with serious regional inequalities.
