En el contexto global de la crisis de las humanidades, y en el marco local del posconflicto en Colombia, este libro se propone defender el lugar de las humanidades en la educación superior, como una herramienta fundamental que le permita a los estudiantes afrontar problemáticas como la manipulación mediática, la posverdad, la polarización política y el énfasis en la instrumentalización del conocimiento. En una sociedad que necesita reconstruirse a sí misma aprendiendo de su historia, esta obra reflexiona sobre las condiciones que se deben tener en cuenta para una mayor incidencia de la educación superior, a través de las ciencias humanas, en la formulación de propuestas orientadas a la educación para la paz. Por la actualidad y la pertinencia de sus argumentos es este un aporte significativo a la urgente conversación acerca de la necesidad de las humanidades en los currículos y las universidades hoy.
Children at risk of marginalization in education are found in all societies. At first glance, The lives of these children may appear poles apart. The daily experiences of slum dwellers in Kenya, ethnic minority children in Viet Nam and a Roma child in Hungary are very different. What they have in common are missed opportunities to develop their potential, realize their hopes and build a better future through education.A decade has passed since world leaders adopted the Education for All goals. While progress has been made, millions of children are still missing out on their right to education. Reaching the marginalized identifies some of the root causes of disadvantage, both within education and beyond, and provides examples of targeted policies and practices that successfully combat exclusion. Set against the backdrop of the global economic crisis, The Report calls for a renewed financing commitment by aid donors and recipient governments alike to meet the Education for All goals by 2015.This is the eighth edition of the annual EFA Global Monitoring Report. The Report includes statistical indicators on all levels of education in more than 200 countries and territories.
