Education in Minas Gerais is about to undergo an unprecedented transformation.

Ethnic-Racial Education: An Essential Topic

According to experts, training in ethnic-racial education has become indispensable to ensure a more inclusive and fair school environment.

Cultural diversity and racial representation in pedagogical practices are crucial elements to combat inequalities and promote an equitable educational environment.

As announced by UFSJ, the main focus of the course is to empower teachers and administrators to comply with Article 26A of the National Education Guidelines and Framework Law (LDB).

This legislation requires Brazilian schools to teach African, Afro-Brazilian, and Indigenous histories and cultures, ensuring that the curriculum reflects the plurality of Brazilian society.

Course Details

With a workload of 120 hours, the course will be conducted exclusively online through the Virtual Learning Environment (AVA).

This modern platform allows participants to combine flexibility with high-quality education, utilizing a methodology that includes live classes, interactive materials, and case studies.

The objectives of the training go beyond basic teaching about ethnic-racial relations:

Promote racial literacy among educators;
Incorporate pedagogical practices based on Black and quilombola traditions and cultures;
Strengthen the ongoing training of education professionals;
Develop strategies for an education that respects and values diversity.

Additionally, the course is open exclusively to teachers and educational administrators of the public network in Minas Gerais, both at the municipal and state levels.

With 3,750 available spots, the initiative aims to reach a significant number of professionals and impact thousands of students.

Certification and Requirements

According to UFSJ, the course is completely free and offers extension certification to participants who achieve a minimum performance of 60%.

This certification, issued by one of the most respected federal universities in the country, represents an important qualification on the resumes of teachers and administrators.

Interested individuals only need to register on the official university website. Enrollment will occur on a first-come, first-served basis, and classes are scheduled to start in March 2025.

Impact on Public Education

As highlighted by UFSJ, initiatives like this are essential for transforming public education in Minas Gerais.

By equipping educators with knowledge about ethnic-racial relations, the course contributes to creating a more welcoming and equitable school environment.

Furthermore, the training encourages participants to adapt their pedagogical practices to the sociocultural reality of their students, valuing the stories and experiences of Black and quilombola communities.

This approach strengthens student identity and combats systemic racism present in society.

How to Participate

To ensure enrollment, simply visit the UFSJ website and fill out the form by January 12, 2025. The announcements with more details about the course can be found at the following links:

The free course offered by UFSJ represents a unique opportunity for teachers and administrators who wish to transform their pedagogical practices and contribute to a more inclusive society.

But could this initiative inspire other universities to adopt similar projects and broaden the reach of ethnic-racial education in Brazil?

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

Ethiopia has banned gasoline and diesel cars, placed over a hundred silent electric buses on the streets of Addis Ababa, and now aims for half a million electric vehicles by 2030, all powered by Africa’s largest dam and a courage that few countries have shown.

Egypt wants to draw 10 million cubic meters of water from the Nile per day into the desert, irrigate a new agricultural frontier, and build a city where there is currently only sand.

BRICS is preparing a payment system inspired by the Brazilian PIX that will allow direct transactions between countries using national digital currencies without relying on the dollar or Western banks as intermediaries.

Norway is drilling 27 kilometers of rock 392 meters below the bottom of a fjord to build the world’s largest and deepest underwater road tunnel — when completed, a 21-hour journey will be reduced to 10.

Chinese engineers begin filling a 217-meter dam at an altitude of 3,000 meters and prepare a 2,240 MW hydroelectric power plant to integrate hydropower, solar, and wind energy in the upper Jinsha.

Giant turbines on the seabed of Scotland have been generating clean energy for nearly a decade without interruption, and now the big promise is that tidal power could solve the biggest problem of solar and wind energy: the unpredictability that no one has been able to overcome until today.

The Stad Ship Tunnel will excavate 3 million cubic meters of rock to open 1.7 kilometers through a peninsula and create the world’s first full-scale ship tunnel, designed to divert ships from one of the most violent stretches of the Norwegian coast.

The largest railway under construction in the Northeast will complete 20 years of construction in June — spanning 1,206 km, with R$ 14.9 billion invested, 727 km completed, and 53 cities that waited 67 years to see the first cargo train cross the sertão towards the sea.

While in Brazil the Transnordestina has been waiting for 67 years, China began drilling 29 tunnels through the mountains of Central Asia to build the first railway connecting three countries — it’s 523 km, US$ 4.7 billion, and 5,000 workers cutting rock at 3,000 meters of altitude

Brazil has never generated so much clean energy — and has never charged so much for it: while solar and wind farms break records, the electricity bill rises by up to 23% and R$ 52 billion in charges are paid by 35 million families who don’t understand why electricity has become so expensive.
