International Conference “Paulo Freire: A Centenary of Actuality”

The Paulo Freire International Congress: A Centenary of Actuality, which will take place on December 13, 14 and 15, will be an event which involves a set of varied activities to celebrate Paulo Freire’s centenary through conferences, lectures, round tables, thematic round tables, poster presentations and cultural moments.

The Congress will be virtual, with on-line transmission, so that we can count on the widespread participation of professionals and students from the three continents where Freire worked – America, Europe and Africa.

This congress, which is based on contemporary issues in the area of Education, is broadened from an interdisciplinary perspective to include the areas of Cultural Accessibility; Physical Education and Sports; Permanent Education: Young People and Adults; Social and Popular Education; Gender, Race and Class; Museology: Culture and Heritage; Politics, Citizenship and Human Rights; Territory, Public Policies and Social Memory; University and Citizen Science. Areas that have been developing projects and actions based on Paulo Freire’s reflections, impacts and methodology.

It will be three days of meetings, sharing of experiences and reciprocity of knowledge between universities, research centres, social movements, collectives, associations and non-governmental organisations. In a centennial celebration that is inspired by Freirean arguments that call us to critical thinking committed to the transformation of a less oppressive and more democratic society.

Organization: CeiED – Centre for Interdisciplinary Studies in Education and Development, in collaboration with the UNESCO-ULHT Chair “Education, Citizenship and Cultural Diversity.

“To be cultural or to be conscious is the radical form of being of humans, as beings who, remaking the world they have not made, make their world and, in this making and remaking, remake themselves. They are, because they are being.” Paulo Freire.
