CICLOPEDALEIROS: EDUCATIONAL PROCESSES ARISING FROM THE STRUCTURING OF THE SOLIDARITY ECONOMY ENTERPRISE

Abstract

significant of work in Brazil and the increase in inequalities. The large amount of people living in socioeconomic vulnerability and the struggle to overcome this situation raises alternatives to income generation.  These alternatives promoted exploratory practices like the uberization of work, but they contributed to boost other economies as well. The Solidarity Economy Enterprise called CicloPedaleiros seeks, through bicycle deliveries, to generate an income for adults who are aside of the labor market, subject to unemployment and informality. This article aimed to identify and understand the educational processes arising from the social practice of bicycle deliver in this enterprise. As methodology, we used participatory research, the systematization of observations through field diaries and analysis based on phenomenology, which led to the emergence of three thematic categories: A) “I gone there to speak and said, I am from CicloPedaleiros solidarity economy enterprise”;  B) "It is good to wear a helmet just to be sure, at right time you’ll be saved";  and C) “Precariousness is the word of the year”.
