Abstract

Highlighting the importance of discussing the professional profile of language teachers in the Brazilian Amazon, this article seeks to evaluate how, in Curricular Pedagogical Projects, foreign languages ​​and languages ​​spoken by indigenous peoples are considered, in addition to issues historical-cultural aspects that influence the training of teachers in the Literature Degree Courses at the Federal University of Acre (UFAC). Regarding the method, we opted for a qualitative approach through bibliographical study to analyze how these documents serve a training oriented to pluricultural diversity, based on the theoretical contribution of trans/indisciplinary Applied Linguistics. The results show that the curricular components developed in the Literature degree courses at UFAC include, in general and specifically, themes relating to indigenous, black and Afro-Brazilian languages, cultures and sociability, which, in a certain way, can provide support for future teachers discuss issues relating to linguistic and racial problems in the classroom, making educational spaces more plural and inclusive. However, there is a lack of components aimed at teaching foreign languages ​​other than those under study, as this signals fragility in Pedagogical Political Projects, and therefore makes the plurilingual training of future teachers difficult.
