Abstract: The 2013 edition of the World Social Forum took place in Tunis, March 26th-30th. While Mediterranean Education actors rarely refer to Frantz Fanon when challenging the neo-liberal educational agenda, among the Latin American, Asia and African popular education actors there is a noticeable trend to “read” local practice in relation to regional specificities and to endorse the epistemic de-linking and disobedience from the linkages between rationality/modernity and coloniality as advocated by transmodern scholars Quijano and Mignolo.
