Abstract (English):	Objective: the present research seeks to investigate the social representations of the teaching profession around political education in order to identify opportunities and challenges that may arise in this training field. Methodology: qualitative research was carried out from an epistemological hermeneutic perspective, based on the construction of natural and narrative semantic networks. It involved a population of educators with post-graduate degrees such as specialization, master’s degree and doctorate, who have carried out their educational work in different educational settings and various regions of Colombia, both in public and private spheres. Results: the elements involved in political education are varied and involve scenarios that surround the orientation of a people, the raising of awareness of society, the empowerment of citizenship and commitment to human development. In addition to a critical attitude towards political systems, the deepening of democracy and various normative elements that allow us to infer that political education is nurtured and has multiple possibilities for transformative action. Conclusion: political education is a key tool for building a conscious, critical, committed and liberating citizenship, capable of facing the challenges and problems of an increasingly complex and globalized world. This calls for approaches from multiple perspectives, horizons of thought and emancipatory actions, so that in this way the training processes and expected change, needed by contexts and communities, can be nourished.

Abstract (Spanish):	Objetivo: la presente investigación busca indagar por las representaciones sociales del gremio docente en torno de la educación política para lograr la identificación de oportunidades y desafíos que pueden emerger en este campo formativo. Metodología: se llevó a cabo una investigación cualitativa desde una perspectiva epistemológica hermenéutica, fundamentada en la construcción de redes semánticas naturales y narrativas. Se involucró una población de educadores con postgrados como especialización, maestría y doctorado, quienes han ejercido su labor educativa en distintos escenarios educativos y diversas regiones de Colombia, tanto en ámbitos públicos como privados. Resultados: los elementos que involucran la educación política son variados y atraviesan escenarios que circundan la orientación de un pueblo, la conscientización de la sociedad, el empoderamiento de la ciudadanía y el compromiso con el desarrollo humano. Además del sentido crítico frente a los sistemas políticos, la profundización en la democracia y diversos elementos de corte normativo que permiten inferir que la educación política es nutrida y tiene múltiples posibilidades de acción transformadora. Conclusión: la educación política es una herramienta clave para la construcción de una ciudadanía consciente, crítica, comprometida y liberadora, capaz de enfrentar los desafíos y problemáticas de un mundo cada vez más complejo y globalizado. Este, demanda abordajes desde múltiples perspectivas, horizontes de pensamiento y acciones emancipadoras, para que de esta forma se puedan nutrir los procesos formativos y de cambio esperados, necesitados por los contextos y comunidades.
