INTERNATIONAL EDUCATIONPOLICIES: CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON THE CONTINUING EDUCATION OF FEMALE LITERACY TEACHERS

The article presents critical reflections on the continuing education of female literacy teachers in comparison with international education and literacy policies. The research aimed to know how the effects of the international organizations guidelines for education and literacy are manifested in the speech of women participating in the continuing education of the National Pact for Literacy in the Right Age (PNAIC) held in the municipality of Santa Cruz Cabralia, BA. The methodology adopted is the qualitative approach whose method is taken from a dialectical perspective, in approximation with the current of Marxist thought and the assumptions of Critical Theory. The procedure used was a semi-structured interview with women participating in the continuing education of the PNAIC. The results indicate that, if, on the one hand, the continuing education suffered the effects of the neoliberal policy that designed the PNAIC, on the other hand, the training action was associated with what schools demand in the effort to transform objective reality.
