We understand that the greatest force was underrepresented, the teachers of basic education, professionals with autonomy and ability to make decisions and lead training. ; Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES ; A pesquisa aborda a formação continuada de professores e as políticas vinculadas a ela como desafios permanentes do sistema educacional de ensino em suas diferentes esferas de abrangência, evidenciando articulações, aproximações e distanciamentos que ora estão evidentes, ora mascarados, considerando disputas políticas e tensionamentos locais.
