Comics in Intercultural Science Education (ISE): Educational Innovation to Teach Ecology relating Peasant and Academic Knowledge

Year: 2026

Type: preprint

Abstract: Intercultural science education requires a dialogue between knowledge systems, that configures a challenge due to the epistemic and ontological disparity between academic and local knowledge, one of the most important characteristics of the science education within local-peasant contexts is the way in which academic scientific knowledge is approached and linked with local knowledge into the classrooms. Based on the proposal of Intercultural Science Education (ISE) as a trading zone, this study. The perspective of trading zone in intercultural science education can function as a mediator between different epistemologies and ontologies if it is adequately engaged with both the empirical and philosophical complexity of bringing both Peasant Knowledge (PK) and Academic Knowledge (AK) into local classrooms.
