Educação de jovens e adultos (EJA) e educação em direitos humanos na produção materiais pedagógicos numa perspectiva intercultural.

Abstract

This paper addresses the transversality of human rights in the course “Continuing Education in the Production of Teaching Materials for Youth and Adult Education (EJA)”. The course's approach was based on Freire and included 30 EJA teachers, 10 undergraduate students and 4 university professors. The analysis used literature on human rights and education as well as studies on decolonial pedagogy, interculturality and interdisciplinarity. The results of the five collectively elaborated teaching materials showed an interaction between University and Basic Education based on horizontality, a contextualized training with the teaching reality and an approach consistent with the specificities of EJA. Human rights education in EJA were considered to be fundamental for the construction of a public, secular and plural education and, therefore, emancipatory and favoring a fair and democratic society.
