Weaving the walked route of El Andarín, the collective popular communication: “initiating the way towards a systematization”

Abstract

Throughout the pages of this text, the members of “El Andarín Kolectivo” relate the experience of five years of touring, constructing and reconstructing the paths of communication and popular education. Their experiences have not only been narrated with the intention of making a critical look at their walk, but also reflect on the histories, struggles and demands of the communities, especially the indigenous, with which they have worked. Its history, which is tangled with others, is the source of learning, reflections and analysis that are reflected in this document. Although, this work is an approach to a systematization of the experience, there are significant advances that allowed not only to make sense of the experience as Kolectivo but also to the lives of those who integrate it. An encounter to analyze their practice in light of the theory, to build their own definitions and resignify concepts, but, above all, to have the necessary tools to continue on the paths of communication and popular education. Trails that undoubtedly for the El Andarín Kolectivo are linked to the struggle for a dignified and just world for all.
