Resumo: Para Paulo Freire, a luta pela independência da Guiné-Bissau e os anos que se lhe seguiram constituíram a concretização de princípios ideológicos que orientaram a sua proposta pedagógica. Admirador convicto de Amílcar Cabral e conhecedor da ideologia do PAIGC, abraçou o convite que lhe foi dirigido em 1975 para apoiar a alfabetização no país. Neste contexto, realizou várias deslocações ao país e contactou com o centro de superação e formação de professores Máximo Gorki. Paulo Freire encarava-o como o embrião de uma universidade do povo e a implementação da educação enquanto ato político gerador de Desenvolvimento. 2022-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/10071/28663 Título próprio: Intersectional politics and citizen activism: An Israeli Mizrahi feminist lens Autoria: Daniele, G. Resumo: This article aims to rethink intersectional sites of solidarity carried out by coalitions of heterogeneous groups coming up from the margins of society. From this standpoint, I analyse intersectional politics through practices and processes led by feminist and other social justice grassroots activists together with citizen activists, that have helped give rise to political visibility of marginalised communities inside Israel. To address this issue, I critically discuss the interconnection of political intersectionality, coalition building, citizen activism, and its implications not only at the grassroots level, but also in local politics and institutions. This research is based on extensive fieldwork that took place in 2016 and 2018 in the most peripheral neighbourhoods of south Tel Aviv. In detail, I explore the role of one of the most well-known Israeli Mizrahi feminist movements called Ahoti (Sister) — for Women in Israel, in creating intersectional coalitions with other marginalised groups that mainly include long-term Mizrahi residents, non-Jewish African refugees and migrant workers. This cooperation between feminist activists historically engaged in grassroots movements together with citizen activists involved in new local struggles represents an original intersectional approach to multidisciplinary feminist research. 2023-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/10071/28082 Título próprio: Greetings in Africa – Beyond the handshake: An essay on greeting and leave-taking rituals as communication practice in Sub-Saharan African agrarian societies Autoria: Schiefer, U.; Carvalho, A. L.; Nascimento, A. C. Resumo: In African Agrarian Societies greeting and leave-taking rituals are an essential part of the communication processes that constitute these societies as collective entities. Through elaborate forms of greeting and leave-taking people initiate and end communication and interaction processes within a framework of collective identities and cultures. Intricate greeting rituals allow to deal with all forms of encounters, with living people as well as with the spirits of the deceased. Greeting rituals are acquired through lengthy periods of learning. Their mastery is the sign of being an adult and competent member of society. External actors from different cultures often seem to be unaware of the subtleties of these greeting rituals. They ignore them at a cost. This essay provides some insights into the inner workings of African societies concerning the framing of most of their internal and external communication processes that are as vital for their lifeworlds as they are for their interaction with external actors from different spheres. Analysing the societies in a comprehensive manner as self-organising entities within an ethnic matrix clearly shows the limits of reducing greeting rituals to mere speech acts between individuals and proves that some of the fundamental assumptions of modern communication theories are not valid for African Agrarian Societies. 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/10071/23352 Título próprio: Psychosocial risks prevention: Perspectives from Portuguese SMEs Autoria: Ramos, S.; Costa, P.; Silva, S.; Passos, A.; Tavares, S. Editor: Teoh, K., Dediu, V., Saade, N. J., and Hassard, J. Resumo: Introduction: This paper presents the Portuguese results from the first phase of the PPPSER project, which has a qualitative nature. Micro, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) represent 99.9% of the Portuguese business setting. According to national sources, there are 1,167,811 SMEs in Portugal, with a combined turnover of 220 billion euros. Therefore, the main goal of this phase was to gather data from relevant SMEs stakeholders about what they perceived as psychosocial risks, their main causes and consequences, the general level of awareness about the issue, the main obstacles to prevention and intervention and specific actions developed considering those risks. 2016-01-01T00:00:00Z
