The document delves into the concept of 'education as commons', a term inviting re-evaluation of education as a collective resource. Combining 'education' and 'commons' poses an intellectual challenge that questions the current sociopolitical landscape marked by neoliberal governance. Neoliberal policies have exacerbated societal crises, compromising democratic values and creating an urgent need for a more equitable social structure. The paper argues that considering education as a commons addresses this need by advocating for the democratization of knowledge, in contrast to its current commodification. It highlights the historical divide between elite and popular education, emphasizing the importance of integrating the latter into societal norms for a cohesive future. The concept advocates for education not merely as a market-driven commodity but as a shared heritage accessible to all, aligning with broader transnational social movements advocating for social equality, climate justice, and anti-racism. Such a perspective demands a shift towards more inclusive educational practices that ensure knowledge is a participatory and democratic resource. This shift could profoundly contribute to reformulating democratic projects by embedding educational frameworks within wider social paradigms, promoting a just and sustainable society for future generations.
