This issue of ARQ sheds light on some of the past and future challenges of education. After the pandemic, many Latin American countries face increasing school dropout rates and widening gaps in learning experiences. We believe that, in this context, it is essential to think of education as a decapsulated program, open to community needs, where design ensures diverse collectivities and public policy values the urban and civic contributions that educational establishments can make. It is about understanding students not just as users or clients, but as citizens. [Editorial extract]
