Doctorate in Human Development, Education and Interculturality

We understand Human Development beyond health aspects, access to education and standard of living (access to services). We assume that Human Development promotes the use of capabilities and potential for personal, group, community and social improvement, motivated by the tendency to growth that is manifested in all living beings. For this use, the appropriate environment is needed for growth. In this sense, for Human Development to be achieved, it is necessary to investigate and intervene in situations of violence against people and groups, unemployment, risk behaviors and health protection., educational and cultural, environmental processes, poverty, marginalization, among other problems.
In the current context, the educational system is considered a fundamental priority for the construction of more inclusive and fair societies, and education in this postgraduate degree is conceived as a “humanizing action” for Human Development. In the search for this new process of Human Development, the promotion of intercultural dialogue is essential, since it contributes to political, social, cultural and economic integration, as well as the cohesion of culturally diverse societies.
Faced with the social, cultural, environmental, economic, political and educational problems and changes, both national and global, Universities have the social responsibility of training human resources with a high ethical, human, methodological and investigative sense. However, reality can no longer (nor should it) be addressed disciplinaryly, since the responses are no longer relevant, appropriate or necessary, hence the need for a transdisciplinary approach.
Given the above, this postgraduate program seeks through art, education, socio-environmental and psychosocial processes, from a transdisciplinary and intercultural perspective, to contribute to Human Development in different areas of people: group, family, community, social, business, etc. Therefore, graduates of programs in the areas of health sciences, social sciences, humanities, and others are welcome at the discretion of the academic board.
