Elementos teológicos como apuesta pedagógica en la construcción de escenarios de paz

Abstract

Current theology has had a significant impact on different contemporary societies, since it is not limited exclusively to reflection on God or the study of religions and religiosity, dogmas, rituals, but encompasses different dimensions of human reality. In other words, through the study of theology applied to human realities, horizons of comprehension about the text and context are made possible, giving a vision of faith and Christian commitment to the promotion of the human person, to interpret in detail what is revealed in the everyday realities, related to the God’s revelation message. For this reason, a research proposal is postulated that focuses its study and analysis in Latin America, placing a special emphasis on the context of violence, injustice and inequality that has marked for decades, the Colombian land and the need to build peace scenarios from the educational area. In this sense, it is pertinent to base an study that reveals the actions of the theology professors in favor of the construction of peace scenarios. On that basis, the methodological system must support the elements that will contribute to the different searches. Consequently, the contribution offered by the mixed method designs is emphasized, which is understood as the articulation of two or more research methods, the first that goes to the narrative, recreating the living voice of individuals, and the second to the documentary allowing the investigation in theoretical sources and previously systematized experiences. Therefore, around this understanding and articulation that we will go deeper in the benefits and needs of articulating different methods in accordance with the research practice.
