Keys on the Formation and Human Development in Pedagogy

This paper is based on the experiences of the author, who has worked in the various levels of the Venezuelan educational system. This has been a very important platform to understand the ideas of education and human development within the Venezuelan institutionality in the educational field. The idea of education that we have, as teachers, should be rethought in order to consider the personal stories of those who share with us their time, interests and willingness: children, young people or adults, all with particular identities, differences and coincidences. The teachers, the schools and the State cannot consider an education for someone they do not know. In this sense, we provide some reflections resulting from our ethnographic work, based on the school life, interviews, class analysis, observations, and stories, among others. Our thoughts are classified as formation, hope, dialogue, attitude, and school life.

La educación mediada por el mundo. Pistas para la promoción de prácticas educativas descolonizadoras

The educational processes are seen in this paper as “places” of colonization and freedom. Thus, the educational goals that have been assigned to education would condition the liberating possibilities of the teaching processes. As a result, the author suggests –from the interculturality paradigm– a series of keys for constructing both decolonized and decolonizing educational mediations.

CORREDORES ECOLÓGICOS DA MATA ATLÂNTICA: VISÃO INTEGRADORA DO PLANEJAMENTO TERRITORIAL NO CONTÍNUO DE PARANAPIACABA -ESTADO DE SÃO PAULO - BRASIL

La visión bioregional de la conservación es reciente en Brasil. El planeamiento de mosaicos de las áreas protegidas con las intervenciones previstas en la zona tapón es un alternativa para corregir los dibujos actuales de áreas de protección. Lo Continuum Ecológico de Paranapicaba en el estado de Sâo Paulo (Brasil) se puede considerar uno de los corredores restantes más importantes de Mata Atlântica, reducidos hoy solamente a 7.3% de su extensión original. El Continuum Ecológico de Paranapiacaba tiene un alto nivel de biodiversidad. Se caracteriza por la vegetación que presenta gran diversidad estructural, y por lo tanto, así como  la presencia de  las  especie-llaves  endémicas, que  requieren  los  esfuerzos  efcientes para su conservación. Las estrategias que vienen siendo adoptados por  los parceiros de  la conservación buscan demostrar que es posible construir las ofertas adecuadas del uso y de la exploración sostenible de los recursos naturales. El empalme de algunas iniciativas socioambientales con el mosaico de las unidades de conservación, busca una “buena vecindad” a las unidades de la conservación que se hallan en el área-núcleo del Continuum. Palabras clave: Mata Atlântica, bosque lluvioso, buffer zone, conservación, áreas protegidas Abstract The bioregional vision of the conservation is recent in Brazil. The planning of mosaics of areas protected with interventions planned in the buffer zone is an alternative to correct the current drawings of Protecting Areas. The ecological Continuum of Paranapicaba in  the State of São Paulo  (Brazil) can be considered one of  the most  important  remaining corridors of Atlantic Rainforest, today reduced only 7.3% of its original extension. High level of biodiversity  is characterized by forest vegetation  that presents great structural diversity, and consequently, as well as presence of endemic species-keys, that require effcient efforts for its conservation. The strategies that come being adopted for partners of the conservation search to demonstrate that it is possible to construct to adequate proposals of use and sustainable exploration of the natural resources. The joint of the some social-environmental initiatives with the mosaic of Units of Conservation, searchs to construct a “good neighborhood” to the Units of Conservation that if fnd in the area-nucleus of Continuum.Key words: Mata Atlântica, rainforest, buffer zone, conservation, áreas protegidas
