Educación Museal Antirracista y las Ciudades Educadoras en el Contexto del Cambio Climático

Abstract

This article explores the intersection between anti-racist museum education and the right to the city, through reflections based on the extension project “Território Negro do Rosário: Preserving the Collection and Anti-Racist Museum Education”, in light of the perspective of educating cities and their contemporary implications. It adopts a decolonial and dialogical approach, investigating ethnic-racial relations and the impact of structural racism on the organization of urban space and its climate change. This study is inserted in the context of the UNESCO UniTwin Network - City that Educates and Transforms, articulating the right to the city with issues of sustainability, ecological transition and emerging urban pedagogies in the face of climate change. The analysis covers the challenges faced by black communities, highlighting how museum education practices can contribute to a plural city, reinforcing the role of urban spaces as educational agents.
