PONTA PORÃ-MS E PEDRO JUAN CABALLERO: UMA ESCOLA TRILINGUE NA FRONTEIRA

Abstract

The present work aims to conceive an innovative proposal for a trilingual school in the city of Ponta Porã, located in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, which shares a border without physical limits with the Paraguayan city of Pedro Juan Caballero, forming a twin city. The motivation for this project arises from the significant presence of Paraguayan citizens who make use of the public infrastructure of the neighboring city, particularly in educational institutions, and seeks to address the main reasons for this phenomenon by proposing effective solutions. The methodology employed to support this proposal involved a comprehensive literature review, including the analysis of scientific articles, dissertations, theses, books, legislation, and current norms. From this study, the architectural project conception was developed, outlining both the needs program and sketches. The importance of an adapted architecture in the school lies in promoting harmony between the two border communities, aiming to provide infrastructure that caters to their needs and satisfactions in an integral manner.
