PALUMBO, María Mercedes; GONZALEZ, María Ana  and  TAPIA, Victoria. Youth participation and education in social movements in the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2022, vol.20, n.2, pp.391-420.  Epub Sep 19, 2022. ISSN 1692-715X.  https://doi.org/10.11600/rlcsnj.20.2.4891.

Education as part of youth participation is the primary interest of this study. Specifically, the authors analyse the educational aspect of social movements emerging in neighbourhoods as part of young people’s participation in the National Indigenous Peasant Movement of Buenos Aires in Argentina. This research focuses on a community soup kitchen that has been established to meet the growing demand for food. A collaborative qualitative study was carried out that involved interviews, observations and participation in the social movement’s activities. The results show that different territories are involved in the movement, resulting in a spatialized perspective on education. Participants in the study demonstrated that they have acquired knowledge produced by the movements while the study highlights the implications of their encounters with otherness.
