DUQUE VARGAS, NEIL HUMBERTO  y  LASSO TORO, PATRICIA. Self-perception of Knowledge and Practices Concerning Education and Forced Displacement in Teachers of Cali, Colombia. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2016, vol.25, n.1, pp.155-173. ISSN 0121-5469.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rcp.v25n1.49971.

The paper explores the perceptions of 300 teachers from the city of Cali concerning knowledge and practices for the support of the displaced population in a school context. The descriptive exploratory study involved documentary, research and the application and analysis of a qualitative survey (Jansen, 2012). Since 1995 regulatory frameworks and orientations to assist the displaced population have existed in Colombia; nonetheless, the study shows that these orientations still have not had sufficient coverage to impact what teachers need to know and do in that respect. From a political psychology perspective, this article supports the need of continuous teacher training to improve the attention given to displaced populations in the educational environment.

Palabras clave : education; forced displacement; teachers' perception; public policies; political psychology.
