Abstract(s)
Os jovens têm sido descritos pela literatura como apáticos politicamente, com um fraco sentido de responsabilidade cívica e baixos níveis de participação na comunidade. Sendo as famílias a instituição de socialização mais fundamental, os jovens institucionalizados podem enfrentar desafios acrescidos durante o seu desenvolvimento cidadão. Tendo isto em conta, foi elaborado um projeto de investigação-ação junto de cinco jovens com idades compreendidas entre os 13 e os 17 anos, residentes numa casa de acolhimento do concelho de Portimão, com o objetivo de compreender se as sessões de educação para a cidadania extraescolares seriam úteis na consciencialização das jovens para os seus direitos e deveres cidadãos. A análise dos dados, recolhidos através de inquéritos por questionários observação participante, e avaliação final das atividades, permitiu compreender que as jovens desconheciam muitos assuntos e temas ligados à cidadania, mas não eram completamente desinteressadas pelos seus direitos e deveres enquanto cidadãs.

Since families are the most fundamental institution of socialization, institutionalized young people may face additional challenges during their development as citizens. Taking this into account, an action research project was designed with five young people aged between 13 and 17 years old, living in a foster home in the municipality of Portimão, with the aim of understanding whether extracurricular citizenship education sessions would be useful in raising awareness of their rights and duties as citizens. Analysis of the data, collected through questionnaire surveys, participant observation, field notes recording the young people's interactions with the content and their final evaluation of the activities, allowed us to understand that the young people were unaware of many issues and themes related to citizenship, but were not completely disinterested in their rights and duties as citizens.
