El Rol de la educación religiosa escolar en la resolución de conflictos como estrategias para mejorar la convivencia en el grado octavo de la Institución Educativa Santa Fe Ralito

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the causes that generate school conflicts among eighth-grade students at the Inesfer Educational Institution, located in the department of Córdoba, Colombia, and to develop effective strategies for their resolution. These conflicts impact not only the school environment but also the students' family and social surroundings. For this reason, an analysis of the social context of the region must be included, as it is marked by a history of violence due to the internal armed conflict, which has influenced school coexistence. The methodology employed is ethnographic in nature, complemented by the philosophical hermeneutics of Gadamer and Heidegger. This approach allows for a deep understanding of student behavior, integrating their previous experiences, prejudices, and cultural context. The concept of the fusion of horizons is key to interpreting the social and school dynamics of the community, which facilitates the identification of cultural and experiential biases. Finally, the research seeks to propose solutions that promote a more harmonious and healthy coexistence both within the institution and in the community in general, with the aspiration that the youth become leaders capable of contributing to a more peaceful and equitable social environment.
