Narrating memory in times of pandemic: the non-place of another in educational field

Abstract

Since its creation, the National Pedagogical University has had the mission to regulate, strengthen and train
professionals in the field of education. However, the Mexican educational system faces new dilemmas that
have been posed for some years now. In this circumstance, the Covid 19 pandemic has made more visible
these social issues that disrupt and violate the educational system: structural violence, social inequalities,
discrimination, problems of gender relations, feminicide, environmental issues, among others.
From our field of action, education, and the university educational system, it is a matter of establishing
paradigms that transform the way students and professors think, act and live. In this predicament, voices
have been heard from our Latin America and from diverse movements that have emerged to establish other
ways of seeing education. The purpose of this article is to reflect on the search for more hopeful pedagogies
based on interculturality, critical pedagogy and peace studies. We intend to make visible these pedagogical
practices of the teachers of the Universidad Pedagógica 151 through their school and academic projects.
