SOUZA CANDIOTTO, Jaci de Fátima y RENK, Valquiria Elita. Education and human rights: access to higher education as an emanciapatory public policy. Rev. Cubana Edu. Superior [online]. 2021, vol.40, suppl.1 Epub 01-Nov-2021. ISSN 0257-4314.
This article discusses an education policy for access to higher education in Brazil, the PROUNI- University for All Program, established in 2005, with scholarships to the low-income population from public schools in the community and private universities. This is qualitative research, with the analysis of official statistical data. Results indicate that thousands of low-income youths have had access to higher education; however, they face enormous difficulties in remaining at university and completing their course. Nevertheless, PROUNI is an example of an emancipatory educational experience that mitigates social and economic inequalities, besides being an indispensable means for realizing other rights and the human being's full development.
