Alternative curricular proposal for the practice and experience of Human Rights in educational institutions

Abstract

The main purpose of this article is to analyze the expressions of the hidden curriculum in some educational institutions of the department of Huila and their implications in the different forms of school violence in the context of the policy on Human Rights that exists in Colombia.

The concern about Human Rights in Latin America and Colombia has acquired a fundamental importance due to the existence of real conditions that affirm and denunciate its systematic violation, product of policies and actions based on the forms of violence and the authoritarianism of many governments of the countries in the area. In this context, it is important to ask about the responsibility of the IE (Educational Institutions) for the defense, recognition and respect of Human Rights.

It is proposed that through the hidden curriculum a series of violence are transmitted, that, when not considered relevant, create the conducive space for the permanent violation of Human Rights insofar as the difference, the otherness, and the singularity are not accepted or respected, creating an environment of abuse, insecurity, uncertainty, fear, which affects and calls into question the achievements indicated in the different purposes and principles of IE (Educational Institutions).

In summary, the problem that guides and determines this article is concretized in the study, analysis, characterization and intervention of the Human Rights and its implications for the different forms of school violence expressed in the hidden curriculum.
