PRESENTATION
In this centenary of The Birth of Paulo Freire, we are honored to publish this work more, which has the invaluable cultural support of the Group of Studies and Research in Philosophy and Education (PAIDEIA), from the Faculty of Education at Unicamp, from the Catholic Faculty of Rio Grande do Norte, the Assunção University Center-SP, the National Institute for Research and Promotion of Human Rights (INPPDH) and the Virada Reflexiva Project. The three publishers involved in this publication - Editora Fibra, Editora Brasílica and Edições Brasil - do so for their commitment to the cause of education, participating in this centenary celebration, to promote Paulo Freire’s thought in Brazil and Portugal with love and scientific rigor.
There is no reason to present each author, each author, each text. It was not intended for a presentation of this nature. The texts speak for themselves. We opted for a bilingual edition, to try to facilitate access to the work in English-speaking countries. We sincerely hope that the book will be a half-open door, a possible path, so that research possibilities are built around the relationships between educational experiences in Portugal and in Brazil that were inspired by Master Paulo Freire.
