Reflexiones sobre la curricularización de la vinculación universidad sociedad en la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Honduras

Abstract

The National Autonomous University of Honduras
promotes strategies for the curricularization of the
function of linkage with society, which integrates
teaching and research; and that may be attached to
the training process of current careers.
This impulse is based on the reformist ideas of the
Latin American University about the integration
of substantive functions and the democratization
of higher education, in search of a more relevant
university model.
The article outlines a tour of the events and conferences
from the university extension function, where
approaches to comprehensiveness, the hierarchy of the
extension function and the comprehensive curricular
practices are evidenced. This debate has been sustained
especially by university extension management teams,
based on networking in spaces such as the Central
American System of University Relations SICAUS and
the Latin American Union of University Extension ULEU,
especially in the last decade.
The curricularization of the linking function is based
on the Educational Model of the UNAH, which
proposes a series of integrating principles and axes, to
curricularize comprehensive practices aimed at solving
the most prevailing national problems.
Both political and methodological challenges are posed
for the construction of strategies that transform the
current academic organization and that make room
for a process of curricularization of integral practices
consistent with the Educational Model of the UNAH.
