A diagnosis drawn up by these teens is designed to obtain an inside view of secondary education in Rio de Janeiro,linking analyses of existing educational indicators for this network to the perceptions of the school communities directly involved. Scheduled for the second half of this year, this survey will train 120 teenagers in the 8th and 9th grades, who will then interview 2,400 pupils in the 6th and 7th grades, in addition to teachers and administrators at forty municipal schools.
This project is backed by several partners. The participative research methodology focused on young people was provided by the Instituto Paulo Montenegro, with the Health Promotion Centre (CEDAPS) as the executive partner for the capacity-building activities, in addition to coordinating the field work handled by these youngsters. A group of researchers from the Pontifical Catholic University (PUC) in Rio de Janeiro is overseeing the entire process in terms of educational values. The Municipal Education Bureau (SME) - a crucial partner in this survey - is also monitoring these actions closely. The idea is that the findings should generate input for the preparation of public policies focused on this stage.
