Abstract
GONZALEZ-TERREROS, Maria Isabel and TORRES-CARRILLO, Alfonso. Popular Education and Self-Education: Dialogue Between Educational Experiences in Cauca, Colombia. Rev. colomb. educ. [online]. 2020, n.80, pp.335-354. Epub Oct 14, 2021. ISSN 0120-3916. https://doi.org/10.17227/rce.num80-11152.
This research article presents some dialogues between popular education and self-education from discourses and pedagogical experiences that have been carried out by teachers and social leaders of the department of Cauca, Colombia, in educational institutions. The two pedagogical currents are part of the political and educational projects of two organizations of that department: the Asociación de Instructores y trabajadores de la Educación del Departamento del Cauca (Asoinca) and the Consejo Regional Indígena del Cauca (GRIG). From the research work, based on a critical and participatory pedagogy, we find that, despite the differences between these two pedagogical currents, there is a deep dialogue of their meanings, practices and knowledge which has made possible and strengthened the collective constructions in some school experiences where they converge. This article, in addition to presenting these shared meanings: criticism of capitalism, emancipatory meaning, contextualism, organizational strengthening, cultural and subjective transformations, exposes some convergent of their experiences regarding the orientation of their educational practices.
Keywords : popular education; intercultural education; social organizations; teaching practice; dialogue of knowledge.
