The Education department of the ETUI in collaboration with the Free University of Brussels (ULB) is organising a conference entitled ‘Adult Education: A Way to Emancipation. “What Remains of Paulo Freire’s Thinking?“. The conference will question the political and emancipatory dimensions of education.
The conference will feature plenary sessions and panel discussions during which faculty members, members of Paulo Freire institutes and trade unionists will present their insights. This conference aims to address questions such as:
- What is the relevance of Paulo Freire’s thinking in a context characterized by rising inequalities, deregulation, flexibilization and precarization of work and privatisation of public services?
- What role does emancipatory pedagogies play today amidst various crises (social, ecological, and a crisis of representation)?
- How does Paolo Freire’s thinking strengthen democratic values in training and in society as a whole?
- How can trade union education, rooted in popular education principles, contribute to trade union renewal?
