VENEGAS, Marta Vargas. Challenges of Costa Rican education in the 21st Century: Reflections from experiences in rural areas. Rev. ABRA [online]. 2022, vol.42, n.64, pp.36-53. ISSN 2215-2997.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15359/abra.42-64.3.

This essay starts with the characteristics of the Costa Rican educational system, and then approaches the challenges that arise in education and that respond to that system, to the demands given by the vertiginous changes at the global and local levels, to the territorial inequalities. As well as to the economic model and the scale of values that promote the non-continuation of rural practices related to agriculture, by young people. The reflection revolves around what is understood by education and how it should be linked to the contexts in which it is generated, so that what is learned has meaning, is relevant and promotes the quality of individual and collective life. Challenges that have become intensified historical debts and those that have been appearing after the low capacity of the system to provide the conditions of access, quality and permanence of students are recovered. The aim is to rethink education and the educational practices developed by the institutions, so that they are increasingly closer to the needs and desires of the people who participate and that this is materialized in their quality of life.
