Formação profissional e valorização dos saberes do mar no Território da Península de Itapagipe – Salvador/Ba

Abstract

The country's maritime economy involves two hundred and eighty municipalities in seventeen states, playing an important role in the Brazilian economy by enabling income generation and contributing to guaranteeing food for vulnerable communities. However, there are no consolidated data and statistics that enable analysis and accounting of the economic contribution of resources made available by the sea, consequently there is a gap in the production of knowledge about professional training in this segment. This work aims to discuss professional training for non-precarious productive insertion in the world of work for artisanal fishermen in the territory of the Itapagipe Peninsula – Salvador/Ba in line with the professional qualification policy. The promotion and valorization of the sea economy by the bodies has been gradually increasing, such as the Urban Development Master Plan (PDDU) of the city of Salvador, with topics focused on (re)qualifying the nautical segment in Baía de Todos os Santos, in addition to foresee the elaboration of the Itapagipe Neighborhood Plan, which includes the qualification of labor focused on the segment and the restoration of old spaces to house activities linked to the nautical segment and the Prodetur Nacional Bahia, which presents a diagnosis in the economic, social, environmental dimensions and demographic focus on tourism and nautical activities throughout Baía de Todos os Santos. However, such investments demonstrate an approach aimed at serving the productive sector mainly in the tourist aspect, leaving aside one of the oldest productive activities in human existence, artisanal fishing. The methodology used to prepare the work was based on bibliographic research of official documents from public bodies, the QUALISalvador database, reports and spreadsheets from the Professional Qualification Coordination (COQUAP/SETRE/State Government), semi-structured interviews with fishermen craftsmen and public managers, in addition to carrying out a focus group with fishermen who are members of a cooperative. The present work sought to dialogue with authors who discuss the issue of precarious work and the concept of Sea Economy.

The present work sought to dialogue with authors who discuss the issue of precarious work and the concept of Sea Economy. As a result, a model of syllabi for a professional training proposal aimed at training artisanal fishermen will be presented as Social Management Technology – TGS. , considering values and knowledge combined with the use of Alternation Pedagogy.

In this sense, the main result achieved in this research work was the possibility of listening to the main actors involved, which enabled the search and ordering of content scored by the fishermen themselves, thus respecting the concrete work, the way of life and the culture of the fishermen. Fishing community, providing differentiated social and professional qualifications.
