Our Methodology, Educational, and Political Instruments (“The Popular Education”)

The Popular Education
The Popular Education is a collective process that allows the exchange of ideas and experiences with the intention that suggestions of social transformation will come from the people who this transformation will affect, because these proposals will be more effective and will be received by the people that need it if it is coming from their own vision. It will establish new relationships of power, counteracting suggestions of domination, discrimination, exclusion, and exploitation from those that have power against those who do not.

One of the fundamental tasks of The Popular Education is to promote efforts of reaching out to those in power as a group to express the strength and abilities of the people.

The Popular Education works with common people in order to create an awareness of the struggle against injustice that most people live with, and hopefully through these efforts, we will create the capacity to transform this situation.

Through the use of The Popular Education, the collective knowledge of the group can be deepened. This can allow them to find the causes of the problems, which will in turn allow them to propose solutions that will work.

The Popular Education is so flexible that you could say that the methodology is not even complete. But the people and their history are constantly changing, and since The Popular Education is based completely on personal experience, it can be enriched by new experiences.
