Abstract

This text, which integrates the Dossier commemorating Paulo Freire’s centenary, highlights the presence of this educator in the state of Goiás, is organized into two temporal sections. The first focuses on the 60s, before the 1964 military coup, when Freire held a national debate and came to Goiânia to publicize his experiences on adult literacy which showed his conceptions about education. The second focuses on the post-exile period, with Freire's participation, in 1980, in the III National Meeting of Supervisors, and in 1988, when he was awarded the title of honorary doctor proposed by the Faculty of Education at UFG. From the analysis of the documents, as well as the testimonies of people who followed these events, we can see that the presence of Paulo Freire in Goiás was fundamental for the debate on a liberating and democratic education in these two moments in history. PFreire has left a significant mark on education in Goiás, Brazil and other countries, this recognition is consolidated in several places, which makes him even more the patron of Brazilian education.

KEYWORDS: Paulo Freire. Goiás. History of Education. 1980’s.
