Educação decolonial na formação de licenciados em Educação Física: A ACCS em Comunidade de Terreiro - diálogos culturais - como prática transformadora

Abstract

This paper discusses the importance of contact with formative processes of decolonial education in higher education, based on the subject EDCK71 – ACCS in Community of Terreiro: cultural dialogues, highlighting the knowledge about body culture, education, leisure and spirituality produced and replicated in traditional communities, contributing to the discussion about the possibilities and challenges for the applicability of law nº 10.639/03 and law 11.645/08, both in basic and higher education. In addition, it aims to reflect on whether and how the Bachelor's Degree in Physical Education at the Federal University of Bahia prepares its undergraduates to work with this theme. In order to achieve the proposed objectives, this historical research of the present time, with a qualitative approach, privileged a theoretical immersion regarding decolonial education, the training of undergraduates in Physical Education, education of ethnic racial relations and the hierarchy of knowledge. Likewise, it analyzed documents from the Physical Education course at UFBA, such as the Curriculum, the Political Pedagogical Project of the course, and reports from students enrolled in the ACCS. The results pointed to the need to broaden the debate on the training of undergraduate students and an education that engages with the social and cultural realities of students and how access to this knowledge can enrich the training of future teachers, preparing them to build an anti-racist, inclusive, and transformative Physical Education.
