- Abstract
This article aims to describe the results of a research conducted in order to guide the performance of an extension project of the Coastal Sector of UFPR aimed at fostering democratic political culture among young people from the Paraná coast. With a mixed methodological approach, the research investigated the political culture of the young target of the project, having been carried out through a questionnaire applied from July 2017 to July 2018 for high school students from urban public schools in the municipalities of the coast of Paraná. The nature of this scientific dissemination is classified as exploratory and descriptive and is configured as an exercise of understanding about how young people in the region think and relate to politics, its institutions, systems, and practices. The results point to the lack of interest of young people in politics and the lack of identification by them of spaces in which they feel learning, discussing, or exercising politics. Young people put themselves in a passive position, as viewers, rejecting behaviors that express more active political positions. The research findings led the extension project to work on the promotion of political education for children and young people, disseminating information involving the structure and functioning of the Brazilian State and stimulating democratic participation. Given the importance of the theme for the development of citizenship and the strengthening of democracy, it is intended to replicate the research from time to time, keeping updated the view on how the young people of the Paraná coast think and experience politics.
