This research has as main objective to generate reflections on the environmental planning process of ecological corridors evidence-based published through the action research methodology. This is the UFSCar ecological corridor, which is foreseen in the last update of the Campus Master Plan, held in 2013. The action research model was used as the main methodology. Criteria for bibliographic analysis of scientific evidence were developed. Regarding the information obtained through scientific evidence, for the groups of organisms affected by the ecological corridor, it is believed that plant restoration, based on species native to the region, favors all groups of organisms. Regarding the type of plant restoration, studies point to passive restoration, indicating only the removal of eucalyptus which, in turn, can be kept in small fractions, which can function as nucleating species for restoration. Regarding the control of brachiariae, the result is divided between the use of chemical control or mechanical extraction, indicating a study that tests which is the best option. The roads are shown to have an impact on biodiversity conservation, but few studies address the effect of firebreaks as an object of study, requiring practical proof. Environmental monitoring of all management actions is essential, using different instruments and methodologies, prioritizing those that best represent the specific needs of the corridor in question. The qualification criteria of the bibliographic sources proved to be valid for selecting the information obtained. Through the applied action research methodology, we were able to reflect more on the research development process, which was positive to generate questions and assessments about the available structure used by us for bibliographic research
