Abstract

This article aims to analyze the third knowledge proposed by Edgar Morin in Seven Complex Lessons in Education for the Future, teaching the human condition, in connection with the epistemology of complexity and with creative and insurgent pedagogical practices. It is a qualitative bibliographic review that examined works by Morin, Moraes, Suanno, Saturnino de la Torre, Paulo Freire, bell hooks, Vera Candau and Catherine Walsh, organized into four categories of analysis. The results indicate that teaching the human condition requires recognizing the unity and diversity of human beings, integrating reason, emotion, imagination and ethics, cultivating creativity as an attitude and as a right, and embracing insurgency as a commitment to dignity and intercultural dialogue. It is concluded that, when taken as the axis of the educational process, the human condition shifts the school from a place of reproduction to a place of creation, hope and coexistence.
