O projeto social como agente socializador em comunidades periféricas de Fortaleza/CE

Abstract

This paper discusses the Citizen Athlete social project as a possible socializing agent in a peripheral community nucleus in the city of Fortaleza/CE. The purpose of this research was to analyze whether the social project fulfills or not its role as a socializing agent in one of its nuclei, in the city of Fortaleza/CE. Thus, in order to reach this goal, a case study of a qualitative and descriptive nature was carried out, where ten subjects participating in the Conjunto Ceará nucleus were interviewed. Analyses of the statements were made, by the Bardin method (2011). The results show that the Athlete Citizen project practiced in the soccer field of Conjunto Ceará contributes significantly to the development of citizenship formation, the escape from crime and professional training, in addition to proposing contributions to the community through social projects. The results also showed the need for incentive programs that contribute to the development of the student as a being beyond the athlete, emphasizing his or her citizenship education. Therefore, it can be concluded that the nucleus located in the sandbox of Conjunto Ceará of the citizen athlete project contributes effectively to the integral development of individuals, working their social and personal skills.
