ABSTRACT
This chapter presents our first inter-/transdisciplinary experience within the proposal to include planetary citizenship (PC) and the Ecology of Knowledges in the curriculum of Brazilian universities. PC is discussed according to the views and practices of three academics from Letters/Education, Biology/Ecology, Physics/Meteorology. PC is conceived here as a floating signifier to be articulated in a variety of concrete projects proposed by different groups according to their demands and aspirations. PC has already been developed in a series of recent publications where the authors contextualized the topic in their area, Education (Moraes 2014, 2015; Moraes & Freire, 2016; Moraes & Freire, 2017). The authors recognize the important aspects of global citizenship (GC), but pinpoint its limitations, including those related to its acceptance in the Brazilian university context. They believe that PC captures elements that seem key for the curriculum of universities in Brazil and, perhaps, abroad.
