Creatively reviving and innovating emancipatory practices, knowledges and epistemologies that have been under attack by neoliberal and neocolonial rule can no longer be overlooked. Robust and critical citizen engagement through social movements and transformative education is a necessary cornerstone to building meaningful and critical forms of democracy. Social solidarity (and eco-global citizenship) is confronted by a myriad of forced and unforced migrations, xenophobia, avarice, warfare, and the global environmental catastrophe, with global elites continually shoring up their bottom line. This book-offered in English, French and Spanish, with authors from a dozen countries-is part of our socio-political and educational project, seeking to bring people together across linguistic, cultural, geographic, identity and disciplinary lines. Aiming to cultivate and facilitate deliberative, engaged dialogues, ideas, proposals and actions for a world that more purposefully and audaciously includes all humans, species and the environment under the same tent is a central feature of our epicenter. Les pratiques, les connaissances et les épistémologies émancipatrices créatives et innovantes qui ont été martelées par le régime néolibéral et néocolonial ne peuvent plus être négligées. Un engagement citoyen solide et critique par le biais de mouvements sociaux et d’une éducation transformatoire est une pierre angulaire nécessaire à la construction de formes de démocratie robustes et critiques. La solidarité sociale (et la citoyenneté éco*mondiale) est confrontée par une myriade de migrations forcées et non forcées, de xénophobie, d’avarice, de guerre et de la catastrophe environnementale mondiale, les élites mondiales renforçant continuellement leur positionnement économique. Ce livre-en anglais, français et espagnol, avec des auteurs d’une douzaine de pays-s’inscrit dans notre projet socio-politique et éducatif, cherchant à rapprocher les gens au-delà des frontières linguistiques, culturelles, géographiques, identitaires et disciplinaires. Visant à cultiver et à faciliter des dialogues, des idées, des propositions et des actions délibératifs et engagés pour un monde qui inclut plus délibérément et audacieusement tous les humains, les espèces et l’environnement sous le même toit est une caractéristique centrale de notre épicentre.Ya no se puede pasar por alto revivir e innovar creativamente prácticas, conocimientos y epistemologías emancipatorias que han sido golpeadas por el régimen neoliberal y neocolonial. La participación ciudadana sólida y crítica a través de movimientos sociales y la educación transformadora es una piedra angular necesaria para construir formas significativas y críticas de democracia. La solidaridad social (y la ciudadanía eco*global) es confrontada por una miríada de migraciones forzadas y no forzadas, xenofobia, avaricia, guerra y la catástrofe ambiental global, con élites globales continuamente apuntalando sus ganancias. Este libro-en inglés, francés y español, con autores de una docena de países-es parte de nuestro proyecto sociopolítico y educativo, que busca acercar a las personas a través de líneas lingüísticas, culturales, geográficas, identitarias y disciplinarias. El objetivo de cultivar y facilitar diálogos, ideas, propuestas y acciones deliberativas y comprometidas para un mundo que incluya a todos los humanos, las especies y el medio ambiente bajo la misma tienda de manera más decidida y audaz es una característica central de nuestro epicentro.
