This article proposes a critical look at the non-formal education strategies, which have been conducted mainly in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, by four nongovernmental organizations, in order to provide sexual education to girls between the ages of 12 and 16, showing the role played by the civil society in contradicting the school conservatism. Clear trends emerged from this study to indicate that sexual risky behaviours, unintended pregnancies, and HIV transmission among adolescent girls are closely related to intentional as well as unintentional reproduction of the power relations, social meanings, moral codes, stigma and silence attached to adolescents, their sexuality and sexual health within key institutions. As a result, their sexual behaviours are hidden and ignored. As schools do not develop curricula for life, NGOs play their role by means of non-formal education.
A amplitude internacional das violências nas escolas tem levado à presença cada vez maior dos policiais nos estabelecimentos de ensino. Este trabalho analisa as pontes entre escola e polícia no Brasil, Portugal e França, em tempos de crise institucional da chamada pós-modernidade. Neste cotejo verifica-se que tais relações correspondem ao quadro constitucional e administrativo de cada país, sendo as normas reinterpretadas na realidade social, afastando-se com frequência do tipo ideal burocrático. Nesta dinâmica, se verificam arriscados desvios e superposições de papéis de educadores e agentes. Diversos projetos têm buscado, com maior ou menor sucesso, superar a distância entre policiais e jovens, cujos papéis sociais e aparências os opõem sob a lente de estereótipos, em parte fundamentados em fatos. Propõem-se rumos para novas pesquisas.
