Education for Global Citizenship(Acta Scientiarum. Education; vol. 44) Year of publication: 2022 Author: Williams Ibarra Figueroa | Elia Calderón Leyton Corporate author: Maringá State University Press This work explores the relationships between citizen training in education and the human development necessary for the formation of democratic citizens. The text also presents different controversies that revolve around the concept of citizenship in light of various theoretical conceptions, and a position is assumed that favors its application in educational proposals in an international context. Even revealing the sources that generate the conception of the formation of citizens throughout history presupposes analyzing the synergies that characterize the models of citizenship and the educational projection of each educational stage. The importance of reflecting on the rationality of pedagogical decisions includes an exercise to recognize the challenge that the new challenges of our time imply, from the training processes for the exercise of global citizenship. 
Training for Citizenship in Gender Equality at Elementary Education(Sinéctica, Revista electrónica de educación; no. 60) Year of publication: 2023 Author: Denys Serrano Arenas | Azucena de la Concepción Ochoa Cervantes Corporate author: Sinéctica, Revista Electrónica de Educación Gender equality is a purpose from educational policies aimed to eliminating sociocultu-ral inequalities that limit the exercise of children's rights. At present, gender stereotypes that legitimize the roles exercised by girls and boys that limit the forms of participation persist, promoting different levels of exclusion in school life. The objective of this work is to analyze the perceptions of a group of sixth grade students, about how they consider they should participate in school dynamics due to their gender condition, to detect tho-se stereotypes that influence the practice of their participation. A descriptive study was carried out using a Likert-type questionnaire to 64 students. The results show that gen-der stereotypes are reproduced that provide children with greater ease and freedom to express themselves, as well as to make decisions. Modifications in the care roles were also identified, within which, they begin to have greater interference. In parallel, it was found that these stereotypes represent structural difficulties for the self-recognition of the par-ticipatory capacities of girls. It is recommended to take participation as a fundamental element for the exercise of citizenship in gender equality.
