Abstract

The objective of this study was to analyze the education and poverty conceptions present in material published from 2006 and 2014 that speak directly to beneficiaries of the ProgramaBolsaFamília (PBF), a Brazilian federal cash transfer program. The assumption of the survey was that the wordings are composed of material, cultural, historical and socialaspects. Publications understand poverty by multiple dimensions, such as lack of access to healthy food and denial of rights.Education has been recognized as an important means to overcome the socio-economic vulnerabilities. The discursive genre of the material includes a prescriptive and disciplinarian character; however, this feature has been losing strength over the publications.
