1 Presentation
In this edition of the Paulo Freire Forum, the activities are basically distributed in three formats:
conferences (each with five speakers),
culture circles (where registered work will be presented and meetings of specific projects will be held), and
cultural activities (programmed especially for the event or suggested by the city's cultural schedule). Apart from the organizational team, conference speakers and those involved with the cultural activities, we will have two modes of participation:
a) participants
without work to present;
b) participants
with work to present.
Those
who register without work to present will participate in the conferences that take place on
September 16 and 17 as well as cultural activities planned throughout the meeting. In this case, they should register before August 1 or before all available spaces are filled (which may occur prior to that date).
Those
interested in presenting work, apart from the cultural activities and conferences on September 16 and 17, will be guaranteed participation in the culture circles of
September 18 and 19. As well as registering, they
should send their papers to be read by the Selection Committee before August 15, 2008. Once his/her work is approved, a person will be able to participate in all event activities (lectures, cultural activities and culture circles).
2 Formatting work for the Culture Circles
Work proposed for the Sixth Meeting of the Paulo Freire Forum must conform to the following specifications:
a) All work (essays, analyses, scientific articles and/or experiential accounts) should refer to the Freirian legacy and focus on the the Forum's theme, “Globalization, Education and Social Movements: 40 years of the Pedagogy of the Oppressed.”
b) The work should fit into the thematic categories proposed for the culture circles: “Adult Education”, “Popular Education”, “Citizen School” and “Planetary Citizenship.”
