Abstract

ESLAVA, Edgar. EDUCATION IN LATIN AMERICA: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR PHILOSOPHY IN THE REGION. Univ. philos. [online]. 2015, vol.32, n.65, pp.223-243. ISSN 0120-5323.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.uph32-65.efro.

Framed within the development policies for the region, educational agendas for Latin America represent specific commitments that transcend the improvement in the results of specific tests permeating both pedagogical practices and conceptual frameworks in which these ones acquire meaning. This paper covers some of the commitments made by these agendas and develops the general framework in which participation of philosophical community is expected and required as a guarantor and promoter of the construction of spaces for reflection and action on educational system.

Keywords : Latin America; education; development; identity; philosophy.
