SUMMARY:

This research aims to develop a Digital Booklet focused on Anti-Racist Education in the teaching of Geography, with emphasis on the study of ethnic-racial relations (and inequalities) in the school environment. The proposal seeks to understand and problematize students' spatial practices within a predominantly Eurocentric curriculum, highlighting the limits and boundaries of affirmative policies in the face of hegemonic socio-cultural patterns. From this contextualization, the research adopts the concept of Anti-Racist Education as its central axis, analyzing structural racism and its impacts on the construction and circulation of geographical knowledge. In addition, pedagogical strategies are explored that enable a critical and reflective approach to ethnic-racial relations, encouraging the valorization of diversity and the construction of a citizen and ethically humane educational environment. The proposed Digital Primer should serve as an accessible digital teaching resource, offering theoretical and practical support for teachers and students in deconstructing stereotypes and promoting anti-racist geographical education, contributing to and implementing educational practices that tackle racism and promote social justice in the school context. The theoretical foundation is based on references from Geographical Education, articulated with research and authors who have investigated Antiracist Education, such as CIRQUEIRA (2017), MUNANGA (2013), QUIJANO (2005, 2023), PINHEIRO (2023), RATTS (2010, 2023), SANTOS (2013), authors of Geography Teaching, as well as the documents, guidelines and laws that underpin and guide Brazilian education. The methodology adopted has been collaborative qualitative research, with experiences in the school space, co-authored production and writing with focus groups (teachers and students), interviews and the application of a semi-structured questionnaire in elementary school contexts in public and private schools in Natal-RN. In order to identify the potential and weaknesses of the Digital Primer (quality, design, functionality), we will analyze the impressions and speeches about this educational product for Geography Teaching, seeking to understand whether it guides and underpins the fight against racism at school and in the classroom.
