This essay presents results of a research carried out with the coordinators of a social assistance and educational center in Porto Alegre (Brazil) - Center for the Promotion of the Child and Adolescent (CPCA) - located in the borough of Lomba do Pinheiro, an environment where children and teenagers build strong pedagogical and socio-symbolical references based on the relationships developed with the Center's educators. With the aim of problematizing "how the educators' formation influences the educative practices conducted with the educated", the work is carried out under the perspective of action-investigation with the support of observation techniques, relational maps and interviews, seeking to learn about the life trajectories of the subjects and to characterize the work context constructed in the organization. At the same time, the inferences constructed point out that the educators establish relationships strongly based on the "protection" of the educated, encourage practices that are not emancipative, and stimulate hierarchy with respect to the community. The information organized here has been oriented to problematize the pedagogical framework routinely employed, with the purpose of encouraging the production of new socio-educative relations.Downloads
