Placement: Guatemala
Application date: May 2, 2005
Time period: autumn 2005
Duration: 6 months

The internship will contain tasks that are concrete, individual and collective. The main internship task is to conduct an investigation at a nation-wide level, concerning alternative pedagogical methodologies within the framework of informal education, which aims to build critical capacities within different social actors with the purpose of transforming their realities. Although there are still no pedagogical methodologies aiming directly at deconstructing racism and discrimination, it is considered important to know and discuss the methodologies that can offer support within this area.

The investigation should focus on establishing general information about relevant programmes (who elaborates the methodologies? What are its contents? With which groups have they been implemented? Etc.), but also to characterize the programmes in relation to results, lessons learned and challenges that the organisations and other social actors have identified, the aim of the methodologies, and how the process of elaboration have taken place. This implies an analysis and collective discussion of the findings. The investigation and characterization will support and qualify the discussion within and between different sectors aiming at the elaboration of antiracist pedagogical methodologies.

Qualifications:

  • University studies in pedagogy or similar.
  • Profound knowledge of Spanish.
  • Willingness to work in a team.
  • Knowledge of Guatemala.
  • Willingness to travel.

    Location and duration:
    The internship will take place in AVANCSO in Guatemala City.
    Duration: 6 months.

    Background:
    The intern will be attached to the project “Conformation of Ethnical Relations and the Exercising of Power in Guatemala. Racism and Discrimination”, which is carried out by the ethnical relations team in AVANCSO (Asociación para el avance de las ciencias sociales).

    The fourth objective of this project points to the elaboration of a first draft for a pedagogical methodology, which contributes to change the racist ideology and practices. The methodology will be elaborated in collaboration with other organisations and social actors, and its creation will take point of departure in the experiences that some of the participating organisations have within the field of alternative pedagogies.

    Additional information:
    Application, CV and relevant documentation should be sent via email to raj@ibis.dk before 2 May 2005 at 12:00 am. The application and CV must be submitted in both Danish and Spanish.
