abstract |
Over the last two decades, a new world order has emerged, with the end of Soviet Union,
the fall of the Berlin Wall, and the lifting of Apartheid in South Africa. Increasing
dominance of capitalism, the rapid advances in technology and globalization and changes
in production systems have created the twin problems of higher unemployment and social,
economic and cultural exclusion. In response, new social movements have appeared to
uphold human rights and promote equality of opportunities. In Brazil, the Government
has been considering measures to promote 'education for diversity' - for equality
of gender, race and sexuality. In December 2004, The Ministry of Education and Special
Secretaries of Women, Race Equality and Human Rights along with the British Council,
organised an international seminar to: 1. collect ideas and expert opinion on themes
such as differences of gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, class, identity; 2. plan
strategies for continual professional development of teachers, and how to include
these themes in curricula. This paper presents a summary of the key discussions in
this seminar and the main outcomes: 1. criteria to identify, develop and review pedagogical
materials and leaning practices; 2. issues around Education for diversity - training
of teachers, materials for teaching and learning strategies for students. |
