"The paper analyzes the construction of a pedagogical-investigative
method, which has as its key element the development of strategies for
overcoming inequalities in Latin American societies. Paulo Freire and
Orlando Fals Borda, among others, provide elements for understanding
the origins of a method which, in research, has a close relation to the
educational dimension and, in education, integrates the investigative
dimension as a part of the process of developing active subjects in their
communities. The paper refers to research projects that were developed
using participatory methodologies, attempting to identify some recent
developments, advances and limits. Among these projects, special
attention is paid to those that show the role of pedagogical mediations in
participatory social processes in South Brazil (state of Rio Grande do Sul),
particularly the activities of a garbage recyclying association and the
implementation of the participatory budget in a municipality in South
Brazil." (author's abstract)... view less
