The EréPomteca project
Abstract
The EréPomteca project comes from the words Eré (playing, in Yoruba
language), Pom (playing or handling, in ancient Tupi language) and Teca (collection, from the Greek language), meaning a library of African and Indigenous toys and games. The main aim of the project is to understand how the games and playing practices of African and Indigenous matrices that are present in Brazil could provide potentialized and effective pedagogical actions for the education of ethnic-racial relations. This is achieved by investigating games, toys and playthings of African and Indigenous origins in educational and artistic practices, in defense of an anti- racist education supporting diversity in studying and teaching spaces. The following goals stand out: the validation of didactic methodologies with ethnic-racial games for use by educators; the preparation of a digital inventory of Afro-indigenous games, toys and playthings; the development of videos/classes; and continuing education for teachers from public and private schools.
