SUMMARY:

Socio-environmental conflicts have marked the world intensely, especially since the eighteenth century until now. There has been and still is loss of biodiversity, water/food crisis, deforestation in several world biomes. In fact, anthropogenic action, although not the only one, is responsible for the ecological crisis and climate change. In this, the need for changes in perspectives was seen, starting from the rescue of other non-scientific knowledge, in order to reflect and propose solutions to these clashes. The theoretical framework used will be focused on decoloniality (Quijano, 2005), through which we will seek to question the epistemological construction of the concept of environmental education from the thought and research of theorists from the Global South. To this end, it is believed that the knowledge contained in environmental education, particularly the decolonial ones, point to a dynamic rebalancing, which configures sustainable relations between humanity and nature. Starting from the hypothesis according to which anthropic actions generate socio-environmental clashes, a fact that impoverishes the intrinsic relations (between humanity and the environment), we will seek to present the human relationship with/in nature, in order to understand the contribution of decolonial environmental education in the mitigation of socio-environmental crises. Thus, the present research aims to investigate the human relationship in/with nature and the role of decolonial environmental education in Guinea-Bissau in the face of socio-ecological problems, in order to present new ways of thinking and understanding the world. A bibliographic and documentary study was chosen, as well as a qualitative approach. In fact, decolonial environmental education is one of the models to follow in order to reestablish deep connections with nature and, therefore, with ourselves, after all, we are a part of it.
