Diálogos entre Paulo Freire e as pedagogias feministas a partir da extensão universitária

Abstract

This Course Completion Work (TCC) is entitled “Dialogues between Paulo Freire and feminist pedagogies from the university extension” consists of the effort to systematize experiences developed by a university extension project carried out with the group of women of the Associação Colônia de Pescadores/As Artesanais Z-16 de Miracema do Tocantins and Tocantínia-TO (COPEMITO) in the year 2019. We then seek to highlight how feminist pedagogies with their specific methods and content, based on the reality and experiences of women and in a perspective By involving women as protagonists in the teaching-learning process, it contributes to the process of women's autonomy, so that they can have a critical and reflexive impact on the deconstruction of patriarchal culture. The various changes made through the struggles and conquests of women are evident and concrete, as well as the similarities between Paulo Freire's thought and feminist pedagogy exist especially through awareness, dialogue, social transformation and the appreciation of experience. We found that feminist pedagogy is influenced by Paulo Freire's thought, as well as feminist pedagogies influenced Paulo Freire. The extension experience lived with the group of women from the Fishermen's Colony (Copemito) demanded a theoretical-intellectual and ethical-political effort articulated to a methodological proposal. We identified that when feminist education is based on Freirean Popular Education, it opens space for dialogue about gender inequality, building with women a way of intervening in reality, changing values and subjectivities, a primordial element to recreate spaces and strengthen social struggles. In this way, thinking about a revolutionary pedagogical political action is the commitment to the educational process of women beyond understanding and intervening in their contexts, but as a process that is also of cultural construction and deconstruction.
