Praxis

Praxis is the cycle of reflection and action that leads to transformation. Rooted in critical pedagogy and philosophy, the term was popularized by Paulo Freire in Pedagogy of the Oppressed (1970), where he describes it as the essential process of liberation. Unlike passive learning, Praxis requires individuals to critically analyze their reality, recognize systems of oppression, and take conscious action to change them.

Praxis is a key component of the Pathfinder Educational Model (PEM), which rejects passive, Banking Education in favor of Problem-Posing Education and Conscientização (Critical Consciousness). In the Pathfinder system, learning is not just about acquiring knowledge—it is about using that knowledge to heal, empower, and transform the world.
