The Preparación y Ejecución de Talleres de Capacitación is a 103-page practitioner manual hosted in CLACSO’s (Consejo Latinoamericano de Ciencias Sociales) open-access repository, and it has become a working reference for workshop design across Latin American academic and civil-society training programmes. The manual is structured around the full workshop-design cycle: preparación previa (objective-setting, participant profiling, materials, room, timing), ejecución (opening, development, closing — with the standard popular-education arc), técnicas de facilitación (a curated method library of icebreakers, group dynamics, analytical methods, and synthesis tools), comunicación (verbal and non-verbal facilitation, listening, feedback), and didáctica (the adult-learning principles that distinguish a workshop from a lecture). The manual’s pedagogical frame is explicit adult education (educación de personas adultas) — participants bring experience, the workshop surfaces that experience and builds analysis on it, the facilitator is a curator rather than a transmitter — and the techniques library draws on the same Latin American popular-education canon as ALBOAN, CEAAL, and Alforja. The CC license (typically CC-BY-NC-ND per CLACSO’s repository policy) means the manual is widely reproduced as a printed participant workbook or adapted by civil-society training teams.
