The Graduate Program in Education, Contemporary Contexts and Popular Demands (PPGEduc/UFRRJ) took an active part in the 17th ANPEd Southeast Regional Meeting. The event was held at the University of São Paulo (USP) from September 8 to 11, 2026.

Its theme: “Education as a right and the question of sovereignty: knowledge, equity and funding”.

The Program was present in the coordination of Working Groups (GTs), in research presentations and in panels throughout the four days of the event.

Coordination of Working Groups and panels

PPGEduc faculty coordinated Working Groups and sat on panels, contributing to the organization and conduct of the debates throughout the Regional Meeting. Students, in turn, shared the stage with faculty in research presentations and in exchanges with other researchers. This collective presence reinforces the formative character of the Program and its importance for the research network in the Southeast region.

More than a one-off presence, PPGEduc’s participation in ANPEd Southeast 2026 reflects an ongoing process of growing and consolidating research that impacts education in the Baixada Fluminense, the Southeast and Brazil.
