Resumo

Este estudo investigou a conscientização ambiental dos voluntários durante atividades de limpeza de praia de estoríl na cidade da Beira, Moçambique. A pesquisa envolveu 150 voluntários, dos quais 42 foram entrevistados. Foram aplicados questionários estruturados depois das atividades para avaliar o conhecimento sobre poluição marinha. Além disso, observações participantes foram realizadas para registrar o envolvimento dos voluntários e a eficiência das atividades de limpeza. A análise quantitativa dos dados dos questionários revelou um aumento significativo na conscientização ambiental dos voluntários após a participação nas atividades. A análise qualitativa identificou fatores que influenciam o engajamento dos voluntários, destacando a importância da educação ambiental e das campanhas de sensibilização. As principais limitações do estudo incluíram o tamanho da amostra e o tempo limitado de observação. O estudo seguiu rigorosos princípios éticos, garantindo o consentimento informado dos participantes e a confidencialidade dos dados coletados. Este trabalho contribui para a compreensão dos efeitos das atividades de limpeza de praias na conscientização cívica ambiental e destaca a necessidade de programas contínuos de educação ambiental para promover a conservação marinha.
