Program

Classes are about meeting pedagogy, in the different spaces (frameworks) of educational community work.
Which knowledge is necessary to educate your own look? Which meeting culture is possible in social differences? How to build micro-communities in the territories and build educational services?
De(s)colonial thought will be studied together with cultural mediation. We will compare ourselves with the books of Chinua Achebe, a Nigerian writer and with experiences of educational and ethnographic research.

Teaching method

Active/reflective, course diary writing.
Classes will be kept by online streaming, if presencial won’t be possible.
