Toward a More Inclusive Post-COVID Recovery: A Tool to Further the Caribbean Policy Agenda Year of publication: 2022 Author: Anna Kasafi Perkins | Stacy Richards-Kennedy | Don Marshall | R. Clive Landis Corporate author: UNESCO Kingston | University of the West Indies The Caribbean is a grouping of islands and low-lying coastal countries of sovereign nations and dependent territories that share a history of colonialism and coloniality,1 which has shaped and continues to shape their “complex mix of political and administrative structures”. Indeed, Caribbean nations experience a “paradoxical, type of political sovereignty and experience of development”. All Caribbean nations have been classified by the United Nations as Small Island Developing States (SIDS), taking account of “the peculiar social, economic and environmental vulnerabilities” they experience. Caribbean SIDS are highly indebted and vulnerable to climate change, hurricanes and other natural hazards. At the same time, theirs is a paradoxical existence as their vulnerabilities place them alongside least developed countries, in spite of some being designated by the World Bank as high or middle-income countries. Such classification limits access to the international financing needed towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.

Popular Education and Critical Pedagogies in Latin America and the Caribbean: Emancipatory Currents for Public Education in the 21st Century Year of publication: 2018 Author: Estela Quintar | Inés Cappellacci | Anahí Guelman | Claudia Loyola | María Mercedes Palumbo | Shirly Said | Laura Tarrio | Silvya De Alarcón | Beatriz Areyuana | Fabián Cabaluz | Felipe Zurita | Jonathan Piedrahita | Yicel Giraldo | Cindy Guzmán | Yolanda Pino | Andrés Castaño | Mónica Salazar Castilla | Héctor Fabio Ospina | Piedad Ortega Valencia | María Teresa Cruz Bustamante | Juan Carlos Hernández | Cándida Chávez | Ariana Celeste Aquino | Suyapa Pérez | Danilo R. Streck | Alfonso Torres Carrillo | Alfredo Manuel Ghiso | Oscar Jara Holliday Corporate author: Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales (CLACSO) In the pages and chapters of the book you walk through the corners of Bolivia with indigenous voices and struggles, through a Chile and an Argentina that go through stories, struggles and disputes over public affairs in the midst of hostile contexts, through a Central America (El Salvador, Costa Rica and Mexico) that rescues a tremendous legacy of organizational and revolutionary processes, and for Colombia, which in its fight for peace, collects the voices of organized youth. At the same time, this construction takes up great thinkers and collective actors who have enriched the paths of Popular Education and Critical Pedagogies.Thus, crossed by our Latin American history, by the distressing challenges and tensions that democracies go through today in each of our territories and contexts, by the conservative restorations that condition and surround us, Critical Pedagogies and Popular Education cannot but, according to what we have been seeing, that working in defense of the right to education that seems to be liquefying in several of our countries, they cannot help but put on the attire of a teacher to resist, from the state public school, the right to learn from children and young people and the right to be a teacher, to teach, of thousands of teachers who seem to want to be replaced by “educational leaders” and canned technological programs, with very good dividends for their importers.
