RDS do tupé mecanismos da economia ambiental, solidária e da educação ambiental como alternativa ao uso da terra

Abstract

The delay of the establishment of a RDS do Tupé Management Plan, as well as other Protected Areas (PAs) of Sustainable Use, is an obstacle to legalization of economic activities involving the use of land in these territories. It causes the inability of resident populations to provide self-management of units and consequently it ends up engaging in irregular activities, which in some cases are predatory and go against the conservation principles of PAs of Sustainable Use. The hypothesis for an alternative land use to provide self-sufficiency of the societies residing in Sustainable Use PAs is an institution of a network of Solidary and Sustainable Economic Enterprises (SESS), using the mechanisms derived from the Solidarity Economy, the Environmental Economy and Environmental Education. A multi-method approach was used in which it was possible to characterize, in the first way, the enterprises and identify a possible needed of studies for a viability of the EESS network institute in the Livramento community.
