Popular Education in Brazil. A Report on the LASG/WEA 1985 Study Visit to Brazil.
Workers Educational Association, Sunderland (England). Northern District.
The 11 "themes" in this report describe the three-week study visit of 11 adult education workers from Northern England to Brazil. The report describes contacts with Brazilian colleagues in workers' and popular education and in related support services and trade and popular organizations they serve. "Organization of the Visit" (Victor Cadaxa) provides an overview. "Brazil 1985" (Derek Bodell, Victor Cadaxa) discusses the economy, the society, and the "new republic." The next three themes describe the three cities visited: "Sao Paulo" (Janet Hannah), "Recife" (Alison Harker), and "Rio de Janeiro" (Ilona Buchroth). Other sections of the report include "Trade Unions and Education" (Jeff Bridgford), "Community Education in Brazil" and "Community Organisations" (Dick Ellison), "Women in Popular Movements and Trade Unions" (Mary Lewis, Clare Brown), "Health and Safety at Work in Brazil" (Peter Williams), "The Church and Liberation Theologv" (Alison Harker, Clare Brown), and "The Brazilian Miracle" (Geordie Murray). A summary of the visit and organizations visited is appended. (YLB)
