Narrativas e direitos humanos

This article aims to analyze Youth and Adult Education (EJA) as a possibility for homeless people to exercise the right to education, recovering the protagonism and autonomy from their narratives. For such, it uses methodologically the exploratory, bibliographical research and some narratives constituted in the empirical research with students of the EJA in street situation. The study dialogues with authors who discuss human rights and the world of work for understanding the need for ever closer dialogues and actions between youth and adult education, work and human rights. The article points out the importance of a youth and adult education that does not fragment the knowledge and the subjects, but that develops in these students the capacity for reflection and action in the face of the violation of rights, promoting the formative process and the production of knowledge in / for human rights education. In the narrative process, memory is present by associating individual and collective experiences, which also constitute these subjects, bringing to light the memory of the social group to which they belong.
