CARPIO, Karla Berenice Del. Today’s society and education as a human right. Rev. Elet. Educ. [online]. 2018, vol.12, n.3, pp.929-941. ISSN 1982-7199.  https://doi.org/10.14244/198271992853.

This article underlines the lack of inclusion and harmony in the educational system and the school which is a situation that reflects the current reality of a society that has been fractured by different issues such as violence, injustice, political and social problems, exploitation of resources and people, natural disasters, etc. This is a problem that affects all members of society including young children and the type of education they receive. In other words, today’s crisis has a negative impact on both the quality of education that is implemented at school and the actions that take place at such an institution. Unfortunately, it is common to observe children who experience alienation, isolation and even segregation in the classroom. An example of this are schools attended by young children in Mexico which is a nation with a significant presence of different indigenous communities who have been negatively affected as well as their languages and traditions. This because of social, political, financial and educational factors. It is the educational aspect that will be explored in this article since it is important to analyze how the situation of the dominant society has had a strong impact on education and on indigenous children, their languages and cultures. The reflection being shared here has the purpose of defending and promoting the human rights those indigenous children have to an inclusive education and to the strengthening of their roots. This is fundamental because it does not only contribute to their individual enrichment, but also to the enrichment of the nation they belong to.
