I Encontro Internacional em Extensão Comunitária
Pajelança Quilombólica Internacional
1st International Meeting of Community Extension
Casa Tainã and Rede Mocambos have an extensive network of researchers in communities, universities, and collectives in Brazil and abroad. This network provides support for 'community extension,' a proposal for teaching, research, and extension that has departures from the communities with the goal of advancing the shared production of knowledge based on ancestral and communal forms of knowing/doing. The main purpose of community extension is to reverse the logic of concentrating knowledge production in universities and build 'pluversities' that point toward new educational, cultural, and technological policies. The 1st International Meeting of Community Extension will gather many people from this network and will be an important event as part of the 35th-anniversary celebrations of Casa de Cultura Tainã.
