Abstract

AGUDELO COLORADO, Elkin Darío. Who is Responsible for Future Teachers' Training on Human Rights in the Faculties of Education?. Folios [online]. 2015, n.41, pp.103-116. ISSN 0123-4870.

This reflection article, derived from a research process about social representations of Human Rights in a group of students, explores the process of knowledge and experience that undergraduate students from Universidad Distrital have during their training process to become teachers. It shows how the field of social representation originates in the daily life experiences of students (both in the university and beyond) where they become aware of Human Rights violation experiences. They begin to question the meaning, significance, usefulness and purpose of rights in the contexts of societies like Colombia and particularly, in a Faculty dedicated to the teacher training. Likewise, the lack of a political will to make Human Rights Education (HRE) more visible and tangible in the curricula for future teachers is questioned, as well as the educational projects in Faculties of Education. Finally, the paper suggests some key ideas to enhance future teachers' training from a HRE perspective.

Keywords : Teacher training; Human Rights; Human Rights Education; subject of rights.
