ABSTRACT: Contextualized education is necessary to work with Geography teaching as a way of combating desertification and land degradation in the semiarid region of Alagoas. Thus, this work intends to understand the teaching of Geography as a way to combat desertification of the land, starting from an approach on contextualized education, in order to present teaching strategies aimed at the protection of the Caatinga biome. We preferred a methodological approach based initially on reading and discussing some theoretical references such as Carvalho (2011), Falcão (2008), Moreira (2008), Sá Bezerra (2009), among others. In a second step, a field research was carried out as a confrontation of theory with the local reality, in order to outline examples of how the teacher can carry out an analysis of Geography teaching as a way of working contextualized education, in favor preservation of the semi-arid region of Alagoas, especially in the municipality of Delmiro Gouveia-AL. The work was also based on a qualitative bibliographic research in loco, in which it was based on the analysis of the Geography textbook “Vontade de Saber”, from the 6th year of elementary school and authored by Neiva Camargo Torrezani (2015), for being used in local schools. Seeking to answer questions such as: how does contextualized teaching take place in the semiarid region. This research has the general objective of analyzing how the teaching of geography can contribute to the understanding of environmental awareness in the semiarid region of Alagoas. as specific objectives to identify the particularities in the semiarid region of Alagoas. Understand which didactic-pedagogical strategies are used to work on contents such as desertification and degradation of the semiarid region of Alagoas in the teaching of geography. It was possible to observe that through the inappropriate use of the land, degradation is occurring and because the textbooks are standardized, the contents do not emphasize the territorial specificities of the semiarid, so it is up to the teacher to mediate this process.
