The Freire Project is dedicated to building an international critical
community which works to promote social justice in a variety of
cultural contexts. We are committed to conducting and sharing critical
research in social, political, and educational locations.

The project promotes research in Critical Pedagogy, and brings together
local and international educators. We are committed to continuing the
global development of Critical Pedagogy and to highlighting its
relevance with marginalized and indigenous peoples.

The Freire Archives and International Journal of Critical Pedagogy are
publicly accessible, publications will be available in both hard copy
and virtually through this website. Housed in the project are the
papers of seminal scholars who have contributed to the evolution of
Critical Pedagogy. In addition, the project will promote research in
Critical Pedagogy and bring together both local and international
educators and continue its development globally while highlighting its
relevance with marginalized and indigenous peoples.

Critical Pedagogy is a domain of education and research that studies
the social, cultural, political, economic, and cognitive dynamics of
teaching and learning. Critical Pedagogy emphasizes the impact of power
relationships in the educational process. Emerging in the late 1960s
with the work of Brazilian educator, Paulo Freire, Critical Pedagogy
has evolved as a cross-disciplinary field.
