Description
Summary:This article aims to generate a reflection on the school context derived from the social and humanitarian crisis of the last two years in Colombia, from this place, the social sciences as an area of ​​knowledge, is configured as a space of pedagogical possibility for the historical understanding of the social conditions in which communities live. The pandemic and its combination with the country's social crisis constituted the opportunity to review critical ways of reading the world from school contexts. From these circumstances, critical pedagogy is presented as one of the ways to appropriate and resignify the ways in which subjects relate to themselves and especially to others, exercises that involve political positions that transcend the contents and spaces that traditionally have been set up at the school. The challenge that unites us is to build a school where the possibilities are shown in a democratic and inclusive way, so that students develop as free subjects, aware and critical of their realities and can have tools to relate ethically and responsibly with the world, hence, the social sciences can represent a teaching and learning route at school in contexts of humanitarian and social crisis for cultural transformation.
