A Educação Superior dos Camponeses: desafios no acesso e na permanência na Licenciatura em Educação do Campo da UNIFESSPA

Abstract

It reflects on the Degree in Rural Education, linked to the socio-historical project of human formation of the working class, constituting a policy that guarantees access to higher education for a wide diversity of rural subjects. However, the advancement of neoliberal policies poses major challenges to their consolidation. Guided by assumptions of dialectical historical materialism, the analysis focused on the challenges that impact access and permanence in Degree in Education of the Rural Population, highlighting structural challenges that involve the relationship with land/territory, under threats from agro-mining-business ventures; socioeconomic, educational, ethnic and gender inequalities; difficulties related to work, which, in a capitalist society, is characterized by high levels of exploitation/instability; weaknesses in policies supporting student retention.
