ABSTRACT:
Education for Sustainability in higher education is considered to be a challenge that demands the integration of a training method based on values, attitudes and principles that reflect on the professional formation. That said, this research intended to analyze the approach that Biology Bachelor Degree students in the Amazon region of Pará take on Education for Sustainability in their Final Papers. The exploratory study with documental analysis considered the Final Papers written by students from five different HEIs, prepared between the years 2017 and 2021, using an analysis instrument based on seven categories that investigate the approach to the principles of Education for Sustainability in three phases. By analyzing 145 papers, it was found that the most discussed principles are related to the right to education and the right to biodiversity. The study provides contributions of a theoretical-scientific, practical-instrumental and social nature, highlighting formative principles that HEIs should consider in the training of their students so that we have professionals concerned with the socio-environmental problems that destroy humanity.
