This study explores the dynamics of learning and social transformation in detention centers, focusing on the ‘Rota da Compostagem’ project. The initiative promotes social reintegration, environmental sustainability, and income generation through education,composting, and family entrepreneurship. The general objective of the study was to analyze how these practices contributed to social transformation and environmental sustainability, adapting to the needs of different audiences. The methodology adopted was a case study, structured in three phases: (1) initial training in composting, combining theory and practice; (2) practical development with the production of organic compost and derived products; and (3) technical support for the creation of family-managed businesses, based on the family entrepreneurship model. The project received support from the National Penitentiary Fund (FUNDOPEN), in accordance with Law No. 7.210/1984, and utilized Educational Digital Technologies (TDEs) to disseminate content in environments with restricted internet access. The results indicate that the project trained inmates in sustainable practices and enabled the creation of family microenterprises, promoting economic autonomy and community strengthening. In addition, it reduced recidivism and promoted social inclusion. It is concluded that ‘Rota da Compostagem’ is an effective model for learning and creating opportunities, with the potential to be replicated in other institutions, expanding its benefits.
