Resumen
La costarricense María Isabel Carbajal y la hondureña Berta Cáceres trazaron –con su pensamiento y con su práctica socioeducativa– una ruta pedagógica que se caracteriza por hacerse cargo de la realidad centroamericana, de los conflictos sociales y de las luchas comunitarias.
En ese camino de fidelidad a lo real, entendieron la educación como mediación liberadora y a la persona educadora como acompañante de procesos transformadores. Nos mostraron que los procesos educativos no son neutros, pues encarnan opciones –a veces dolorosas–, afectos, rechazos y deseos.
Estas dos educadoras centroamericanas siguen incomodando a quienes se resisten a los cambios sociales y siguen esperanzando a quienes confían en la educación como mediación para la construcción de una sociedad más justa.
Costa Rican María Isabel Carvajal and Honduran Berta Cáceres drew up, by means of their thought and their socio-educational practice, a pedagogical route that is characterized for dealing with Central American reality, social conflicts and community struggles. On this path of fidelity to the real, they understood education as liberating mediation and the educator as a companion of transformative processes. They showed us that educational processes are not neutral, since they embody options –sometimes painful–, affections, rejections and desires. These two Central American educators continue to bother those who resist social changes and continue to give hope to those who trust education as a mediation for the construction of a more just society.
