The rural school, a socially constructed space of possible territorial resistance: Views of the territory from the role of a rural teacher

Abstract

The experience of working issues related with education and geography categories from the Territorial Intelligence approach, produces some reflections about the place consciousness and also several territorial lectures that influence the transformation of the relationship between the communities who conform school population and the rural community. In this case, the co-construction participative work with several educational community actors from the rural area of the “localidad Ciudad Bolívar” in Bogotá, -concretely- in the district educational rural institution Mochuelo Alto, tried to understand the diverse territorialities that take place there, around a “territorial table” in which an agenda proposal was generated to transform specific situations of the territory that benefits the community.
