Description
Summary:This text addresses some aspects that integrated Postdoctoral studies in the Education area, conducted by the author, and aims to theoretically systematize a popular education experience based on the implementation of workshops that were held with rural women from the south of Brazil, participants of the Landless Rural Workers Movement (MST). This experience is articulated in the construction of a Latin American feminist decolonial thought in the area of Education, an initiative that is not put in a isolation way, but composes a wide range of possibilities, both political and investigative. Thus, the theoretical frame adopted is located in the field of feminist thought, including the decoloniality applied to the gender issue in Latin America and using as methodology the collection of empirical data through autobiographical narratives, where the (self) biographical narratives of south women emerge, moving towards the construction of a thought that puts in check the androcentric and eurocentric knowledge on which modern science was based.
