SILVA, Isabel Cristina Oliveira da  e  TEIXEIRA, Ana Maria Freitas. School and Life Projects: what young people from Alagoas outback say. Desidades [online]. 2019, n.25, pp. 59-69. ISSN 2318-9282.

The article discusses life projects and the relationship with the school of young students of the 3rd year of high school, in the interior of the Alagoas backwoods, Delmiro Gouveia city. These are partial results of the master's dissertation developed in a qualitative and quantitative perspective, through a structured questionnaire involving 116 young people, a collective interview with 9 students and observations of the school routine. We reflect the importance of life projects for the social change of young people, in a scenario in which the context of drought, often explored by the media, obscures other equally relevant aspects, such as schooling, dreams, the fight for better days. The challenges that permeate these projects emerge in the students' statements, indicating the subjective and structural aspects that constantly intersect. Being someone in life and contributing to the support of their families were two common axes to the testimonies of young people who are in their last year of high school.
