Las madres y su rol educador: una experiencia de cambio desde la educación popular

Abstract

Pedagogical practice within the familiar ambience project of the SDIS, showed how beneficiaries are conditioned to consumerism of social assistance, stagnation in their living conditions, away from po-sitions that allow them to overcome their vulnera-bility. Even so, from development of pedagogical meetings mediated by popular education, spaces of dialogue and reformulation of knowledge were built, which allowed participating mothers to em-power their thinking through constant reflection with others. This interaction encouraged self-knowl-edge of realities, so that new knowledge is restruc-tured and constructed. In addition, it stimulated a change in their living condition, placed them in a critical position, formed them as subjects of law, not limited to excessive consumerism, but through their skills and abilities to create tools that allow them to emerge as active citizens with voice and vote in their lives and their children’s.
