CONTACT: Rebecca Moore Wed & Fri mornings 566-0687 or e-mail SRMOORE WUSC Symposium Series 1995 Education for All: From Rights to Reality! Fatima Freire Dowbor Sustainable development requires a change in values and attitudes’, so believe Ms. Freire Dowbor who sees education as a basic instru- ment for change. Education for All: From Rights to Reality! is but another avenue for this multilingual educator, born in Brazil, to reach out and effect change. Interest in constructing ‘‘asocial mind’’ in young people has found Ms. Dowbor train- ing at the Institut des Sciences de l’Education (Piaget’s Institute) in Geneva; taking courses in Poland at the Warsaw University; in Portu- gal at the Coimbra University; twice in Brazil at the Catholic University and, of course, being exposed to the teachings and practices of Paolo Freire at an early age. Currently the Pedagogical Director of the Instituto Educacional Poco do Visconde, Sao Paulo, Brazil, Ms. Dowbor’s experience in education has been multifaceted. Ms. Dowbor acted as a high school teacher at the Liceu Nacional Kwame Nkrumah in Guinea- Bissau, as an advisor to the Minister of Culture in that same country and has given countless courses and lectures on education at various institutes. Ms. Dowbor acts as a consultant to a number of schools in Brazil and Nicaragua, and has also toured in Canada under the aus- pices of the Camrose Institute. Ms. Dowbor believes in providing the necessary tools to students so that they can empower themselves, work for change and create a sustainable world. In Sao Paulo, her work is directed at correcting an unjust eco- nomic and social structure by changing atti- tudes and behaviours. John Hardbattle The theme of Education for All: From eich -to Reality! is integral to the work of John Hardbattle with indigenous populations in Botswana. Access to culturally defined edu- cation; education pertinent to indigenous life- styles and guided by indigenous beliefs is a pivotal concern for his community. The experiences of the N/oakhwe, also known as the Basarwa, the San, and the Bushmen are applicable, and perhaps univer- sal to other indigenous peoples internation- ally. : A N/oakhwe farmer, Mr. Hardbattle spent a significant part of his youth outside of Africa but later returned. Currently, Mr Hardbattle is in the process of establishing an indigenous non-governmental organization in | Botswana atthe request of his community. He has linked with other international non-governmental organizations and worked with international partners. Mr. Hardbattle is committed to im- proving the lives of his community members and to raising awareness of indigenous inter- national development issues through his work locally, participation in development educa- tion activities, international speaking tours, and increasing the profile of indigenous com- munities through participation in international conferences. He has distinguished himself asa gifted and eloquent speaker and a committed and dedicated activist for indigenous rights.
