This article addresses the issue of youth and adult education as a catalyst for community participation and local development processes in the context of a Brazilian rural quilombola community. In this context, it was sought to better understand the role of youth and adult education, identifying factors of impact that potentiate or inhibit educational processes articulated with local development. The methodological design was based on participatory approaches focused on action-research, implying quilombola leadership in the shared construction of non-formal educational processes defined by them as priorities. To this end, the Programme EJA and Local Development, linked to an educational institution, was collaboratively shaped as a device of this study, that materialized non-formal educational activities related to rural homeopathy; water storage techniques; and community-based quilombola tourist itinerary. One of the main challenges identified was the organization of times and spaces favorable to community participation. However, the main results pointed to the education of youth and adults as a tool for community participation and mediator of endogenous conflicts through dialogue circles, which generated collaborative learning, engaging quilombolas and external partners in the search for solutions to community problems inhibiting the structuring processes of local development.
