OLIVEIRA, Ivanilde Apoluceno de and SANTOS, Tânia Regina Lobato dos. Paulo Freire in Latin America and the United States: Chairs and Research Groups. Rev. Educ. Questão [online]. 2018, vol.56, n.48, pp.106-139. ISSN 1981-1802. https://doi.org/10.21680/1981-1802.2018v56n48ID15177.
The objective of this paper is to present the mapping of Institutes, Chairs and Research Groups with contributions of Paulo Freire's thoughts, in both Latin America and the United States, in order to identify which academic activities they perform and how they constitute the legacy of Paulo Freire's education. This study is a summary of an empirical, qualitative approach on the presence of Paulo Freire in the educational context of Latin America and the United States completed in 2016 and funded by CNPq. For this paper, some data were updated in 2017. The procedures used in the research were: bibliographic review, online surveys, visits to universities' websites, e-mail contacts and open interviews with Freirean professors, participation in events with registration about Paulo Freire Chairs. In the data systematization, tables with excel spreadsheet were used, and, for the analysis, thematic categories were created.
Keywords : Paulo Freire; Chairs and Research Groups; Latin America and United States.
