<strong>Promotora</strong>s Teaching<br />
Approach<br />
• “Popular Education” is based largely on the ideas of<br />
Brazilian Paulo Freire (1921 ‐ 1997)<br />
• All people have a large store of knowledge as a<br />
result of their life experience<br />
• Education is interactive, participatory, <strong>and</strong> fun.<br />
• Action oriented<br />
• More appropriate to use the word “Capacitar” (to<br />
build capacity) instead of “Training”
