The
personal value of any human activity constitutes the base of any
authentic participation which itself is bound to human dignity. The
essence of the participation is the fact that a person who acts
«together with others» takes part in the performance of the activity
with others, but without losing the personal value of his or her proper
action in the process. This is the approach adopted in relation to
participation in the educational community; individuals who constitue
this community act together, according to individual possibilities, in
order to achieve common and individual self-fulfilment. Participation
is not restricted to representation in the governing bodies of those
educational centres. Participation should be present on the most basic
levels of personal cooperation both during the arrangement and the
performance of scholar educational activities. Antonio Bernal Guerrero
Key words: Human dignity. Intersubjetive communication anthropology. Personal participation. Participative education.
