OLIVEIRA, Julvan Moreira de  e  ADJOUDEME, Narcisse Sylvestre Sègla. THE PROBLEM OF THE INTRODUCTION OF NATIONAL LANGUAGES IN THE BENIN FORMAL EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM: strengths and constraints. Revista Teias [online]. 2020, vol.21, n.62, pp.50-63.  Epub 09-Fev-2022. ISSN 1982-0305.  https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.%y.49726.

The aim of this study is to show the relevance of the introduction of national languages in the formal education system in Benin. Situating in the field of Anthropology of Education (CARVALHO, 1982a; 1982b) and understanding that cultural language is transmitted through language, it combines the qualitative method, with a sample of 18 people: three employees from the Ministry of Education, four employees from the Education Directorate Language Promotion, two parents of students and two human resources technicians. The analysis of the results concluded that almost all the interviewees emphasized the introduction of national languages as of major importance. The result of the study also confirmed this urgency. There were different proposals, considering the link between language as a vector for development and the adaptation of endogenous realities.
