ROSSEL, Nélida Cespedes. Paulo Freire está vivo no movimento da educação popular. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2012, vol.18, n.37, pp.449-463. ISSN 1981-0431.
This article is a reflection on the relevance of the contribution of Paulo Freire, and of popular education and its critical and transforming perspective for the current historical time of social, economic, educational and environmental crisis. It is a point of view of the Council for Adult Education in Latin America (CEAAL), which, as a network, coordinates several socio-educational processes, with grassroots organizations and other networks, and tries to change situations that do not allow for humane conditions and just societies. Paulo Freire’s contribution is significant, due to his political, ethical and educational thinking, which starts from one’s current reading of one’s context, to then redefine the meaning of education and its contribution towards the construction of another possible world.
