Desafios e perspectivas da socioeducação na Paraíba : um relato de experiência do estágio supervisionado à luz do serviço social e da pedagogia freiriana

Abstract

This research is the result of the experience of supervised internships I and II in Social Work, carried out at the Youth Educational Center (CEJ), a deprivation of liberty unit linked to the Alice de Almeida Foundation for the Development of Children and Adolescents (FUNDAC). The objective of the work was to analyze the contribution of Freirean pedagogy to the application of deprivation of liberty measures, carrying out, for this purpose, a brief historical review — with a critical bias — on the consolidation of social policies aimed at guaranteeing the rights of children and adolescents, as well as on their current configuration in Brazil, in the context of the capitalist and penal State. Furthermore, it discusses how such policies unfold under the logic of neoliberalism. After these considerations, it was proposed to reflect on the effectiveness of socio-educational measures in the resocialization of adolescents serving sentences. In order to achieve the proposed objectives and substantiate the arguments presented, bibliographical research was used, based on texts by leading authors in the field of Social Work, as well as scholars who deal with the theme of socio-education. In addition to theoretical research, the work incorporated insights gained from practical experience in supervised internships. It was precisely this experience that sparked the need to assess how encouraging the development of critical awareness in adolescents, through Paulo Freire's pedagogy, can contribute to more effective resocialization. Furthermore, it is observed how this pedagogical approach adds more significant results to the construction of the Individual Care Plan (PIA), considering the development of the life project of the young people served.
