The “II Freire Conference: Building the bridge between popular education and university“, organised by the Cambridge Latin American Research in Education Collective (CLAREC) and Universidade Emancipa, will take place between the 17th and 21st of October 2022. It is an international, multicultural, and interdisciplinary initiative organised by a collective of people based in multiple academic institutions and social movements.

The main objective is to promote a pluricultural, democratic and popular space where the international attendants (students, teachers, speakers, popular educators, activists, and researchers) can meet, dialogue, and share knowledge based on Paulo Freire’s thoughts.
