"Nós Por Nós": uma ponte formativa entre a comunidade e a extensão universitária

Abstract

This master's thesis investigates the Coletivo Cine Clube TF (CCTF) in the urban Amazon, analyzing its practices and their influence on the formation of peripheral youth. Structured in a pyramid of five formative dimensions – affectivity, ancestry, corporeality, citizenship education and political education – the research reveals how the CCTF reframes narratives of overcoming, promoting a positive identity for peripheral young people. The analysis of letters from the National Extension Forum (Fórum Nacional de Extensão - FOREXT) from 2016 to 2022 highlights the importance of teaching, research and joint extension, strengthening links with vulnerable communities. Using a qualitative approach that included documentary analysis, observation and interviews, the study reveals that Cine TF's practices – based on affectivity, ancestry, body expression, citizenship and politics – significantly align with the recommendations from the Pro-Rectors Forum Extension of the Brazilian Public Universities (Fórum de Pró-Reitores de Extensão das Instituições Públicas de Educação Superior Brasileiras - FORPROEX). These CCTF practices demonstrate effectiveness in reframing peripheral narratives, promoting self-esteem and new relationships with territories. The interaction between universities and peripheral cultural collectives, such as the CCTF, is highlighted as an opportunity to strengthen university extension and benefit communities through art and culture. In summary, my research seeks to identify subsidies and configure training dimensions for university extension, allowing the innovative movement of peripheral youth protagonism based on the experiences of the Coletivo Cine Clube TF. The research results in an e-book with dynamic activities based on the collective's formative experiences. The partnership between the CCTF and universities is seen as a promising path towards mutual strengthening, emphasizing the importance of promoting collaboration between different actors in favor of the development and empowerment of young people through arts and culture, contributing to the promotion of youth protagonism peripheral and the enrichment of the outreach.
