This work aims to analyze the agroecological transition processes in Western Paraná based on ecological experiences in the region. Various participatory methodological tools and procedures were used to gather information about the experiences and the context in which they are inserted. It was concluded that the agroecological transition process occurs at different scales and in a non-linear way, with the participation of various social actors and acting in several dimensions of transition, with an analyzed experience demonstrating that the transition process is complex, which promotes transformations from agro-ecosystems to the way of thinking and relating to society, moving towards a model that excels in the care of natural goods, concern with climate change, maintenance of biodiversity and a more just and solidary society.
