Deficiencias en la implementación de los estudios afrodescendientes en la educación secundaria en América Latina y El Caribe: una revisión sistemática

This article aims to identify the shortcomings in implementing Afro-descendant studies in secondary education in Colombia. The identification is based on a systematic review of Latin America and the Caribbean. A total of 2,653 scholarly texts published between 2015 and 2024 were retrieved from databases and specialized search engines (Dialnet, Redalyc, Unesdoc, Jstor, Scopus, Scielo, and Google Scholar). After revision, a total of 29 publications met the PRISMA and inclusion criteria defined by the researchers. The findings reveal a lack of implementation of these studies in the region, despite legislative advancements. Even though efforts are being made to comply with the regulations, there is a lack of will among school leadership, inadequate follow-up by territorial entities, apathy among some teachers, scarcity of resources and teaching materials, and inadequate teacher preparation in this area.
