Participación infantil activa: una apuesta a la educación popular desde el reconocimiento de las niñas

Abstract

The project “Active child participation: a commitment to popular education through the recognition of girls”, carried out in Tocaimita, Usme, Bogotá, aims to address the lack of recognition and participation of girls in the community, a problem linked to gender inequalities and traditional roles imposed by dynamics of machismo. The project seeks to empower girls through popular education, strengthen their self-esteem and promote their participation in the family and community, questioning stereotypes and contributing to a more equitable society. The pedagogical intervention is organized in phases: the first focused on reaching out to the population and understanding the socio-educational context, and the second on the development of activities that promote self-care, strengthening identity and a sense of belonging. Through these practices, the aim is to empower girls to be protagonists in their environment, contributing to a positive change in their quality of life and in the dynamics of the community.
