Abstract
This work consists of a succinct reflection on Candomblé's ancestral practices and knowledge that contribute to education and the formation of human values in the lives of its supporters and the subjects with whom they relate. In the construction of this study we discuss about education in its formal, non-formal and informal, as well as about the formation of values of individuals within these practices. Through literature review we discuss about education and its appropriation by the groups involved in that religious institution. We briefly discuss the advent of Candomblé as a consequence of the presence of Africans in Brazil, and from these factors we find that there is an important value-forming process in the realization of the outstanding religion. Thus, we conceive that there are possibilities of using knowledge generated in Candomblecist ritualistic that can contribute positively to the process of formal education.
