GloCal Service Learning e Educomunicazione. Sfide per un'educazione popolare, un dialogo interculturale e intersettoriale alla luce del pensiero di Paulo Freire

Through this article we want to share experiences of exchanges, intercultural and intersectoral dialogue between the university of the State of Bahia (UNEB), Brazil and the University of Padua (UNIPD), Italy and their respective communities (Juazeiro-BA, Rovigo and Padua), through a reinterpretation of Paulo Freire, in particular with respect to the continuous antithesis between dialogue and anti-dialogue. How his thinking, his political-pedagogical proposal and his praxis can be reviewed in the multi-year experiences of international student mobility (with a mixed system of study and internship) and GloCal Service-Learning and in the projects carried out through the dialogic intersection between communication and education (Educommunication)? The article also proposes an analysis of the current challenges of these experiences, and of the respective methodological approaches, which converge in social, educational and communicative practices of observation and listening to the voices of the local reality, of dialogue and community participation.
