Thinking a border pedagogy from the city of Foz do Iguacu, Brazil

Abstract

This paper is proposed to discuss a teacher training program called: “Pedagogía de Frontera”, from the city of Foz de Iguazú, proposed by the Federal University of Latin American Integration (UNILA). In turn, we reflect on the space that immigrants occupy in the municipal schools of the city. For this, a brief description of the territory is presented as a fundamental point for the identity of the schools and important data on the permanent teacher training carried out in Foz do Iguaçu designed from and for the borders. The concept of “between places”, by the author Homi Bhabha, is discussed as a cross-border and transnational space.
