his paper aims at analysing the conception of Otherness in Freire in order to understand the relations with childhood and the liberation from oppression. For that, we raised the following question: What contribution can Freire’s conception of the Other make to understand childhood and liberation? The text follows a qualitative bibliographic methodology, whose contribution is the philosophical analysis, as part of our Master’s research project which has as its investigative focus the question of Other and humanizing education. As a theoretical framework, the works of Freire: Pedagogy of the Oppressed (1987); Pedagogia da Autonomia: saberes necessários à prática educative - Pedagogy of Autonomy: necessary knowledge for educational practice (2011) are used. In Freire’s proposal, childhood is a free and active subject of the educational process, which problematizes, dialogues and awakens adults from their domination and oppression. In addition, it generates the democratic process of world transformation.
