ESE:O’s approach to writing stresses writing as a social process.

In ESE:O projects all writing takes place based on carefully scripted dialogues, which have been designed previously by us to produce those texts which each particular writing community needs (i.e. academic articles, books, press releases, reports, blogs).

ESE:O views writing as an opportunity for individuals to build together something material which can represent them in time: a text. In this context writing becomes a collaborative act of the community.

The collaborative writing process takes place in an online campus E-educativa (Link to educativa) internet platform which fosters this collaborative context.

The ESE:O methodology promotes awareness of the writing process itself: participants become conscious of their own writing process and are taught how to replicate it. This way, participants learn how to teach writing to others as well. This model is called “training of trainers”.

In today’s world the links between research and action are decisive, by building capacity in collaborative writing in the global South.

ESE:O’s methodology aims at direct and collective intervention in critical contexts.

ESE:O builds capacity in democratic literacy  in the global South.

Our workshops, projects and materials aim at developing skills and competencies in writing (for academia, policy making, advocacy and the arts), critical thinking, social communication, accountability and adhering to international standards.
