Abstract
Así querés que aprenda (Is this how you want me to learn?): Artivism as a Speculative Praxis is a youth-led research project created by a community of young people from Centro Educativo de Capacitación, Arte y Producción (CECAP), an alternative school in Uruguay. The project's title is drawn from a poem written during the research process, where youth critically reflect on their educational experiences
