Education for a Democratic Citizenship in the Countries of Latin America: A Critical Look Year of publication: 2007 Author: Bradley A.U. Levinson | Juan G. Berumen This report is a contribution to the discussion of the Regional Policy Dialogue on training for democracy and secondary education in Latin America. In this text, we present an analysis of the results of a survey on education for democracy carried out as part of the activities of the Education Network, which was sent by the Bank to the member countries of the Dialogue. We frame these results in a conceptualization of what it means to educate for democracy. We complement the discussion with information from additional sources that illuminate different aspects of the conceptual framework proposed here.

Internationalization in Basic Education: Languages of Reality(Revista iberoamericana de educación; vol. 93, no. 1) Year of publication: 2023 Author: Vera Lucia Felicetti | Vanessa Gabrielle Woicolesco Corporate author: Revista Iberoamericana de Educación The presence of internationalization practices in Basic Education schools has been quietly taking shape on the national, Ibero-American and international stage, but the absence of records of the actions that characterize them as internationalization continues to be a gap in their understanding. From these silent practices of internationalization we see the potential to build knowledge while respecting the interculturality that permeates the educational space. In this sense, we must recognize and understand these practices as internationalization processes, with a view to debating and reflecting on how they can contribute to the improvement of the educational system from an Ibero-American perspective.

A Diverse World Year of publication: 2023 Corporate author: Entreculturas | European Union (EU) This publication is Entreculturas' pedagogical proposal to educate everyone in global citizenship. With it we intend to contribute to the training of people capable of exercising active and committed citizenship, of transforming their environment and of assuming as their own the global challenges of our time as well as the fulfillment of the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals. This publication collects activities from previous publications, with the difference that it has been adapted to an easy-to-read model to make it much simpler and more accessible for people with functional diversity. The activities address three major themes: 1.) Defense of the environment, 2.) Gender equality, and 3.) Interculturality. By addressing these topics we seek to promote reflection on the different global challenges that affect us and learn about the different ways to contribute to these causes. 
How to Prevent Hate Speech? Year of publication: 2022 Author: Adrián Vives Corporate author: Assembly of Cooperation for Peace The guide “How to prevent hate speech?” is aimed at teaching staff and aims to serve as a support document for working to eradicate hate speech in and through the classroom. In this guide we aim to offer some keys to working against hate speech in and through the educational field, understanding that prevention is essential to ending it. To do so, it is necessary to address it directly, as we do in the first block; but also through intercultural education that eliminates stereotypes and prejudices, as we explain in the second block; and through practical activities that we present in the last block. 
Guide to Coexistence and Restorative Practices Year of publication: 2020 Author: Juan de Vicente Abad Corporate author: Assembly of Cooperation for Peace This guide to coexistence and restorative practices aims to join this collective movement that places coexistence as the central axis of teaching practice. Its objective is to provide teachers with very practical and useful strategies to effectively manage coexistence in the classroom. It is a proposal to address coexistence from a preventive, participatory and people-centered dimension, which conceives coexistence not only as an objective but as an object of intentional learning, which perceives conflict as an opportunity and with an inclusive and restorative perspective, betting on a restorative approach. In the guide you can find practical activities, the purpose of which is to guide educational centers to know and implement the restorative model, through a series of resources that range from the analysis of coexistence to restorative conversations to resolve daily conflicts.
