摘要:AbstractThrough this article we argue for the incorporation of methodologies and materials developed in the field of intercultural education into the school curricula that will serve to develop knowledge, generate debate and, ultimately, promote the acquisition of documented and structured opinions/ideas about such a controversial issue as Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting (FGM/C). Dealing with FGM/C merely by wavingthe flag of Human Rightscan bring more discrimination and stigmatization to those women subjected to this cultural practice. In order to avoid these kinds of oversimplifications, we proposedialogic literary gatheringsas an educational action for the analysis and understanding of FGM/C in secondary school communities.
