One of the challenges in Environmental Education is to promote educational actions from a perspective of critical and participatory training of citizens, on social and environmental impacts such as the indiscriminate use of pesticides. This study aimed to identify and discuss the research on Environmental Education carried out in Brazil, published in dissertations and theses that address educational teaching strategies with an emphasis on pesticides. The study is configured as a Systematic Literature Review, the data collection was carried out between the months of November and December 2020, in the Capes Theses and Dissertations Catalog (CTD/Capes) and the Theses and Digital Library databases Dissertations (BDTD). The search resulted in 12 studies, 1 thesis and 11 dissertations, produced between 2011 and 2020. The information was analyzed according to the study protocol and categorized for content analysis, allowing inferences and interpretations to be made, anchored in the scientific literature. The results of this review endorse the relevance of educational strategies to promote transformative education with critical and reflective students and future citizens, committed to citizenship and social responsibility related to the use of pesticides.
