Introducing Companions
eager for learning
We are not a group, but an idea shared by people who believe in companionship as a way of mutual learning to transform the world.
In his Pedagogy of the Oppressed, Paulo Freire says: “Nobody educates anybody else, nobody educates himself, people educate among themselves mediated by the world.” This idea encouraged an experience of companionship with others, especially with those whom we tend to think they do not have anything to offer.
