We recognize that it is necessary to overcome bureaucratic theories and knowledge technicists that split the cognitive from the affective and from the political. Transdisciplinary education is comprehended here as an offer of freeing education that makes evident its role in the construction of a new historical project.

It is an educational offer from and to the freedom, because it objectives the consciousness of the individuals by promoting a living that permits and stimulates the reconnection of people, of events, and of people to events; that recognizes the submission to the dynamics that comes out from interaction with reality, and of the power over her, the power of searching sustainability for the lives and for the life on the planet on a compromised and ethical way.
