The right to child education in/of the countryside: a study about research groups at CNPq

Abstract

The text presents a mapping of the Research Groups that study Early Childhood Education in the Countryside and are registered in the database of the CNPq. The interest in the subject arose when it was found that the only national survey about Early Childhood Education in the Countryside and characterization of educational practices with children from 0 to 6 years of age living in rural areas in Brazil was completed in 2012. In this text, the methodology of bibliographic survey is used. The results show that there are few research groups focused on Early Childhood Education in the Countryside. There is a need for studies that prioritize brands, spaces, the experiences of a child who lives in rural areas and the training of teachers to Early Childhood Education of/in the Countryside.
