ABSTRACT. This article reflects on the Formation of teachers from the field in the Rural Education Degree Course offered by the Federal University of Pará, Campus of Cametá/PA, in the territory of the Amazon Tocantina, with the participation of the rural social movements. It results from research developed in the Graduate Program in Education, at the Federal University of Pará, plus contributions accumulated by the Group of Studies and Research in Rural Education in the Amazon, with the participation of its members in the Universitas/Br Network, researching higher education in Brazil. It aims to analyze the process of implementing the Rural Education Degree Course - Ledoc, with the participation of social movements, as well as understanding the importance of these collectives in strengthening rural higher education in this territory. The methodology was anchored in Historical and Dialectical Materialism to understand the real movement that involved the articulation between the University and social movements, in the realization of the course, with the accomplishment of bibliographical, documentary analysis and field research. The results revealed that the political strength of the social movements drove the implementation of the formation policy for teachers in the field, in public universities, specifically in the Tocantina Amazon, which has a strong presence of social movements representing traditional and peasant peoples.
