Abstract

The present article aims to discuss the relevance of interculturality and interdisciplinarity in the educational context, and to present an analysis of the perceptions of teachers from a public school in São Luís (MA) regarding their potentialities and challenges in pedagogical practice. We will discuss how these practices respond to cultural diversity and the challenges of hegemonic knowledge, based on the theoretical contributions of Japiassu (1994; 2016), Ivani Fazenda (2011), and Vera Candau (2006; 2012; 2016). The results indicate that, despite recognizing the importance of interdisciplinarity and interculturality, educators face significant barriers, such as rigid curricula and lack of time for planning. These difficulties hinder the effectiveness of practices that are deemed essential to decolonize the curriculum and promote quality education, especially under the pressure of the New High School Reform.
