Oceanizing education: anthropological cartographies of the sea

ABSTRACT The article proposes a critical dialogue between ecological thinking and emerging anthropological cartographies of the sea to "oceanize" Brazilian education. The aim is to reflect on the potential of incorporating coastal epistemologies from the South into the educational debate. For this, we recover aspects of the trajectory of social struggles around the environmental issue in the country and focus on the recent configuration of environmental education as a field of controversies and possibilities. Then, we allow ourselves to be overwhelmed by the attraction of the current intellectual movement of the blue humanities to make visible other ways of sharing territories and maritime resources that consider the right of the multispecies communities that inhabit coastal regions. Faced with the urgency of rethinking the Anthropocene, thinking with the sea entails a gesture of openness to re-educate our attention through these blue landscapes that are more than human.
