SUMMARY:

The theme of youth and social vulnerability has aroused interest in different fields of
knowledge. Most of the researches are dedicated to the studies about the problems that
young people have, ignoring, most of the time, the understanding of these young people
about the daily experiences lived in the midst of social vulnerability. This research aims
at an inserion into the world of these youths, through the liberating praxis of Paulo
Freire and Augusto Boal, to identify and problematize the extreme situations imposed
on them by social vulnerability, in order to think together with them about the
possibilities of coping and overcoming this reality. Our intention was to listen to the
young people and try to understand their perceptions about the oppression imposed by
social vulnerability and the way they position themselves in the face of these
oppressions. As a methodological form, it was decided to carry out spaces of Dialogical
Meetings, having as a support the methodology of the Conversation Circles with the
contribution of the theatrical language of the exercises and games proposed by Augusto
Boal. The young subjects of this research are students of the Non-governmental
organization - NGO - Nova Geração Brasil, which is a philanthropic, non-profit
organization based in the city of São João del-Rei/MG. The dialogical meetings
intended to provoke a critical perspective in relation to limit situations imposed by
social vulnerability, presented by the young people, such as: the lack of social
resources, social stigmatization, the weakening of family ties, intra-family violence,
food insecurity, drug trafficking. In this way, we try to make visible the effects of the
process built by the group, in order to explain in what extent the Paulo Freire’s and
Augusto Boal’s praxis can appear as a possibility of facing and overcoming the limit
situations imposed by social vulnerability. The experience points to the importance of
the meeting, the listening and the dialogue between vulnerable young people, so that
together they become resistance and fight against all forms of oppression imposed by
social vulnerability.
