Behind The Pages - Podcast Of The Jeie

In this episode, Sara Koenders examines the dynamics between police and drug organizations in Vila Cruzeiro in Rio de Janeiro and their influence on education. In her research article, “‘Pedagogy of Conversion’ in the Urban Margins: Pacification, Education, and the Struggle for Control in a Rio de Janeiro Favela,” Koenders examines how Rio’s Pacifying Police Units militarized education in the poorest communities and perpetuated violence and insecurity. Behind the Pages, the podcast of the Journal on Education in Emergencies (JEiE), features exciting and timely conversations with JEiE authors about their work on education in regions affected by crisis and conflict.
