Resumo(s)
“Convergir pela Diversidade em Queluz” é um projecto de educação intercultural, inserido no projecto ConverCidade, e concretizado na Escola Profissional Gustave Eiffel, Queluz.
Os 14 jovens envolvidos integravam uma turma do 1ºano do curso Técnico Profissional de Animador Sociocultural, com idades compreendidas entre os 15 e os 19 anos, habitando, principalmente, em Sintra e Amadora e constituíam um grupo acolhedor, curioso, alegre e receptivo a novas propostas.
O trabalho, desenvolvido entre Outubro de 2015 e Junho de 2016, teve como objectivo principal levar a comunidade a participar no seu próprio desenvolvimento, onde todos fossem agentes activos que pensam, criam e reflectem, tendo como ponto de partida as suas concepções da realidade social. Para a concretização desse objectivo seguiu-se uma metodologia qualitativa, usando como meios de diagnóstico as técnicas do World Café e do Focus Group.
Com este processo participativo foram manifestadas diversas preocupações, a nível da falta de respeito perante a diversidade e a diferença, considerando que era necessário promover mudanças a esse nível. A partir desse momento o grupo de jovens liderou todo o processo de elaboração e concretização do plano de acção, envolvendo toda a comunidade escolar. Deste processo resultaram as acções “Queque Queres?- Semana da Visibilidade Positiva” e o “Quem Quer Ser Cromo?”, que envolveu todas as turmas da escola, com o apoio dos respectivos docentes.
No final, o grupo de jovens compreendeu que tinha atingido o objectivo de consciencializar e sensibilizar a comunidade escolar para a diversidade cultural, considerando que a partir daí poder-se-ia avançar para um projecto comum, participado em todas as fases, onde todos poderiam ser protagonistas. Estes jovens sentiram-se bastante satisfeitos ao perceberem que, com o projecto, a comunidade escolar estará mais atenta e pensará nas questões da diversidade antes de julgar ou desrespeitar o outro pela sua diferença.
“Convergir pela Diversidade em Queluz” (“Converging for Diversity in Queluz”) is an intercultural education project - part of ConverCidade programme – based at Escola Professional Gustave Eiffel in Queluz. The 14 youngsters involved - all between the ages of 15 and 19 and living in Sintra and Amadora, attended Year 1 of a vocational course in ‘Socio-cultural Animation’. They were a curious, welcoming and joyful group, and open to proposals. The hereby reported work took place between October 2015 and June 2016. Its aim was for the community to start playing an active role in its own development, as change agents who could think, create and reflect upon their perceptions of their own social context. A qualitative methodology was used to achieve this goal, in form of World Café and Focus Group as ways to identifying and analysing needs. Through this participative process, various concerns were raised, such as a lack of respect for diversity and differences. Thus, promoting change in regards to this was considered a strong need. After initial stages, the group drafted and implemented an action plan, involving the whole school community. Example activities include “Queque Queres? – A week of positive Visibility” and “Who wants to be a Character?”, both of which included all of the classgroups at school, as well as their class teachers. By the end of the process, the group of youngsters felt they had achieved their objective of raising awareness and sensitising the school community for cultural diversity, suggesting that from there on a joint project could be thought out, allowing for all to participate first hand. As a result, there was also a sense of satisfaction in that, through the project, the school community would possibly pay more attention to diversity in the future, and think before judging or before pointing to the Other’s differences.
