Abstract

Upon the social, economic and historical alienation of the minority sectors inside the State Nation, there arises the so called Popular Education as an ‘alternative’ educational forum
directed to groups of peasants and natives in rural zones in Mexico with the intention of reaching a quality of life for themselves. These systems apply organic farming as a strategy to achieve development and social empowerment of the group. To understand the empowerment of the group bears to investigate in the experiences of the relations between the “promoters” and the student and, in turn, study the experiences of the student in regards to his family
under the work of organic farming. This article is based on interviews with the promoters and students of the subhead office of San Simón of the School U Yits ka’an in the state of Yucatan, Mexico; which looks to contextualize the empowerment from the local level.
