Educación rural : una víctima (in)visible del conflicto armado interno. Aportes desde las narrativas de maestros y maestras del departamento del Tolima

Abstract

The thesis seeks to show from the trajectories of rural education in Colombia, as well as from the dynamics of the armed conflict in the country, the ways and strategies of warfare used by armed groups to break daily life in rural schools. Likewise, the research is aimed at revealing those pedagogical practices and knowledge that strengthen the construction of a culture of peace with a territorial approach. For such purposes, the research adopted a qualitative approach, as well as a narrative research design, which focus on understanding and interpreting the life experience of the subjects as the axis to understand social phenomena. In view of the foregoing, the thesis maintains that education in rural contexts has been an invisible victim of the internal armed conflict as the armed actors have attacked it and its educational community. However, these attacks have overlapped after other acts of war, which has led to their involvement being unknown and, therefore, no reparation process.
