IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SUZANO PULP MILL IN THE SOUTHWEST OF MARANHÃO IN THE LIGHT OF THE PRINCIPLES OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTIMPLEMENTACIÓN DE LA FÁBRICA DE CELULOSA SUZANO EN SUROESTE DE MARANHÃO A LA LUZ DE LOS PRINCIPIOS DE DESARROLLO SOSTENIBLERESUMOO Estado brasileiro fez diversos investimentos na área de infraestrutura e financiou empreendimentos que criaram condições para a expansão do agronegócio e surgimento de empreendimentos industriais, em detrimento do extrativismo e da agricultura de subsistência na região centro-sul do estado do Maranhão nos últimos 50 anos. Uma das empresas a se estabelecer foi a Suzano Papel e Celulose, que no início do século XXI modificou sua estratégia de negócio, passando a investir na produção de celulose para a exportação. Dentro desse novo contexto, o sudoeste maranhense passou a ser um local estratégico para a empresa, que atualmente possui uma Unidade de Negócio Florestal que administra uma fábrica de celulose e um Empreendimento de Manejo Florestal. Em vista dessa realidade, este trabalho se propôs analisar como a Suzano implementa os princípios do desenvolvimento sustentável dentro do contexto socioeconômico e fundiário da região. Metodologicamente, o trabalho é teórico-qualitativo e tem um viés exploratório, sendo a base da pesquisa a análise de material bibliográfico, imagens, relatórios e dados estatísticos produzidos pelo Estado brasileiro e pela empresa certificadora do empreendimento celulósico. Ao final, é possível indicar que a Suzano usou o discurso de desenvolvimento sustentável para convencer as comunidades que seu polo celulósico não causaria grandes modificações nas bases sociais locais. Entretanto, os resultados demonstram que a empresa abdicou dos princípios norteadores da sustentabilidade e da responsabilidade social e ambiental, quando confrontada com possíveis perdas econômicas.Palavras-chave: Agronegócio; Silvicultura; Empreendimento de Manejo Florestal; Responsabilidade Social e Ambiental; Suzano Papel e Celulose. ABSTRACTThe Brazilian State has made several investments in the area of infrastructure and financed enterprises that created conditions for the expansion of agriculture and the emergence of industrial enterprises, to the detriment of extractivism and subsistence agriculture in the central-southern region of the state of Maranhão, over the past 50 years. One of the companies to be established was Suzano Papel e Celulose, which at the beginning of the 21st century, modified its business strategy, and started investing in celulose production, for exportation. Within this new context, the southwest of Maranhão became a strategic location for the company, which currently has a Forestry Business Unit that manages a pulp mill and a Forest Management Enterprise. In view of this, this work analyzes how Suzano implements the principles of sustainable development within the socioeconomic and land context of the region. Methodologically, the work is theoretical and qualitative with an exploratory bias, being the base of the research the analysis of bibliographic material, images, reports and statistical data produced by the Brazilian State and by the certifying company of cellulosic enterprise. In the end, it is possible to indicate that Suzano used the sustainable development discourse to convince communities that its cellulosic pole would not cause major changes in the local social bases. However, the results demonstrate that the company has abdicated the guiding principles of sustainability and social and environmental responsibility, when faced with possible economic losses.Keywords: Agribusiness; Forestry; Forest Management Enterprise; Social and Environmental Responsibility; Southwest of Maranhão; Suzano Papel e Celulose.RESUMENEl Estado brasileño ha realizado varias inversiones en el área de infraestructura y ha financiado empresas que crearon condiciones para la expansión de los agronegocios y el surgimiento de empresas industriales, en detrimento de la extractivismo y la agricultura de subsistencia en la región centro-sur del Maranhão en los últimos 50 años.

Al final, es posible indicar que Suzano utilizó el discurso del desarrollo sostenible para convencer a las comunidades de que su polo celulósico no causaría cambios importantes en las bases sociales locales. Sin embargo, los resultados demuestran que la empresa ha abdicado de los principios rectores de sostenibilidad y responsabilidad social y ambiental ante posibles pérdidas económicas.Palabras clave: Agronegocios; Silvicultura; Empresa de Gestión Forestal; Responsabilidad Social y Ambiental; Suzano Papel e Celulose.

The United Nations' Agenda 2030 for sustainable development is the action plan with the ambitious goals and targets for transforming our world. According to UNESCO, education for everybody is at the heart of the sustainable development, and quality of the education is imperative. Sustainability and sustainable development are ambiguous concepts, and the whole is difficult to discern. Here in this article, we examine them comprehensively and systematically and clarify their elements and relationship in the broader concept of 'quality society'. Quality of the society and education, are dealt with in the professional and standardized way. Great variety of possibilities for formal, non-formal and informal education are available in our societies. Although certain organizations of the society have a strong influence on the prevailing situation and its development, ultimately the education and learning, and also the sustainable development of the society depend on people and their activity. Universities have the special role in the development of civilization towards the advanced human society and the high level of culture, science, industry, and government. Development of the society takes place in the local communities, municipalities, countries, regions and in the whole world. Fast and versatile technical implementations and urbanization set particular requirements on the educational solutions and societal development. Hence, innovations are necessary also for the educational and societal development processes.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), that have been carried out by Indonesia, are global programs launched by the United Nations since September 2015. This is proven by the Presidential Regulation No. 59 / 2017 about the Implementation of Achievement of Sustainable Development Goals which was inaugurated by President Jokowi in July 2017. Among 17 SDGs points, there are 6 points that talk about environmental issue. This shows the importance of environmental issues that are now a global concern. Information about SDGs to public is still not massive, even though SDGs socialization is very important for the society so that the final goal of SDGs in Indonesia will be successful in 2030. The aim of this study is to find ways for media that can fix current environmental problems and problems experienced by Indonesian SDGs. This study used Environmental Communication concept. For the methodology, this study uses framing from Pan & Kosicki, with 4 of the most frequently accessed online media in Indonesia, in 2018 namely Detik.com, Tribunnews.com, Kompas.com, and Liputan6.com.  Pre-research results show that online media contains very little news about environmental issues in their program, implementation and process of achieving Indonesia's SDGs success.
