Éducation Populaire

Éducation Populaire, or Popular Education, is an approach to learning that emphasizes accessibility, community involvement, and lifelong learning outside traditional academic settings. It aims to empower individuals, especially those from marginalized groups, by fostering critical thinking, social engagement, and personal development through inclusive, participatory educational activities. Rooted in social justice, it often occurs in community centers, unions, or grassroots organizations, encouraging collective learning and the sharing of knowledge to promote social change and personal growth.
