Paideia, school, pandemic, civic education: considerations and interconnections under an inclusive perspective


Since 2020, the sanitary emergency conditions caused by the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic have dramatically and shockingly spilled over the entire globe. This has affected and still affects every aspect of human living, including education. The structural change in school organization, committed to offering an increasingly digitized education, makes a compelling challenge to the educational community with regard to inclusion. Within such perspective, we would question whether and how the recent introduction of civil education could contribute to build a new paideia, being a model of “schooling for living” capable of focusing education on sustainability and accessibility by means of defining new style lifes, methodologies, pedagogic content and envisioning, being unknown and regenerating.
