PENA, Maria Victoria González and SOARES, Leôncio. Training of Youth and Adult Educators in Brazil: analysis and perspectives from the National Seminars. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2022, vol.38, e82104. Epub Mar 03, 2022. ISSN 1984-0411. https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.82104.
One of the purposes for which the Seminários Nacionais de Formação de Educadores de Jovens e Adultos [National Seminars for the Training of Youth and Adult Educators] (SNFEJA) developed in Brazil in the period 2006 to 2015 were created was the analysis of policies around the formation of Youth and Adult Education (YAE) educators. However, despite the recognized advances, there are still theoretical-practical deficiencies that promote the realization of public policies aimed at these purposes. Therefore, the objective of this article is to analyze some contributions presented in the SNFEJA, in particular the first three, which are taxed to create the necessary bases for the configuration of educational policies based on the training of the YAE educator. The article presented is a partial result of more comprehensive research aimed at shaping the history of these seminars. For this, some bibliographic sources that support and address the subject were reviewed, essentially the texts compiled from the first three seminars and interviews conducted with their coordinators. The results, acknowledge the contributions made in the different contributions analyzed, are considered a topic addressed in a scattered and poorly systematized way and warn that the qualitative and quantitative panorama is still challenging, therefore, the need to continue defending the theme in this direction is latent.
