This article postulates a reflection focused on the revision and relevance in rurality of an educational proposal that includes the peasantry with their cultural practices, knowledge and recognition as subjects of rights. The meanings of rurality and rural education present in the National Rural Education Policy still obviate the construction of an educational model that integrates categories where it clearly recognizes this sector as center of socio-cultural contribution reflected in curricular programs and syllabi. Furthermore, the simplified idea of agricultural production as a factor of identification of peasantry has not yet been overcome. The question then arises as to what conditions prevent such practices from this population from entering the school curricula. In this approach, different moments of reflection are undertaken, associated with research on the discourses of rural education, practices and links of peasant sectors that have fostered initiatives on the subject of rural education, where the curricular perspective for its recognition is also the discussion center for their postulation as guarantors of rights. This encompasses the synthesis of the need to build education plans, programs and projects that link the cultural practices of the peasants of the country from the first years of age to the national educational policy with a clear perspective of rural pedagogy.

Keywords : rural environment; recognition; school; sociocultural environment.
