Abstract
Environmental education (EE) is an indispensable and urgent cross-cutting theme for society. Theisolation brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic has profoundly changed social relationshipsand daily routines. In the teaching context, digital technology and e-learning have gainedemphasis in academic activities and events. The objective was to identify and discuss howYouTube™ supported the expansion of higher education. The qualitative study examined 283videos on YouTube™ posted between February 2020 to February 2021, which went throughexploratory, bibliographic, and thematic analysis. Watching online videos is one of the mostperformed activities in Brazil, according to data from PNAD (2017), and, in the learning process,YouTube™ presents the most effective resources in supporting the dissemination of e-learningby university students through web events. In general, YouTube™ videos have widely served tomeet the interests of various institutions that sought success, ease, democratization, anddissemination of audiovisual content but urgently need to expand the digital accessibility of theirevents to people with visual and hearing disabilities
