Chapters provide perspectives aware of the regional context but relevant from a theoretical and practical perspective beyond Ibero-America. The volume covers elementary, middle, and higher education, formal and informal, and includes theoretical and applied contributions on a variety of topics including public policies on education, queer youth, sex education, and conservative attacks against "gender ideology" in the region.
