Street languages: Collective landscapes of the languages tha

This guide inaugurates a series of resources to raise sociolinguistic awareness with which the EquiLing action-research project seeks to encourage collaborative participation. We want to share the results of our research with society to support all those who, whether in formal or informal educational settings, associations, or various groups, seek an integrative and open model of linguistic citizenship. The aim of this open science exercise for popular education is to focus on all those situations (very frequent, but often unnoticed) in which language plays a key role in the generation and reproduction of situations of inequality. In an attempt to go further and address the unjust situations to which we draw attention, we share strategies and tools. Thus, we follow the conscientization method proposed by Paulo Freire of education for social change, which advocates that knowledge and reflection be understood as a collaborative and dialogical endeavor. It is, therefore, about a joint awareness that leads to action, and, to this end, we offer guidelines, recommendations, and a sequence of steps with which to implement workshops in places of study, work, or volunteering. The guide includes support material: worksheets, videos, a glossary, and a bibliography.
