Abstract

The Citizen School project developed and reflected collectively and participatively in the Municipal Network of Porto Alegre, between 1990 and 2004, produced an extraordinary change in the Public School in dialogue with other experiences, left legacies and challenges us to its reinvention in the face of the conservative neoliberal hegemony that imposes in Brazil. Questioning the authoritarian, meritocratic and exclusionary school, it resignified curriculum, assessment, rules of coexistence and management of education, through the return of sovereignty to citizenship in the relationship with the state, the rupture of the natural mechanisms of inequality and the debate and alteration of schoolregulations, educational legislation and the meaning of the school. However, the alternation in power determined by the elections, put this proposal and its new democratizing, emancipatory and inclusive concepts in the resistance. From this place, it is necessary to reinvent them and deal with important challenges such as racism, sexism, the preponderance of large-scale evaluations and the privatization of the curriculum and educational budget.
