“…Although I was aware of the ideas of collaboration before I went to the field, "being" in the research field mattered a lot to developing an attitude of collaboration. I realized that the individual exercise of self-reflection and reflection on one's own personal story and the exercise of shared reflection with teachers (Lozano, et al, 2023) is important to develop the skills of collaboration.…”

This paper examines different layers of participation while conducting Participatory Action Research (PAR). In the journey of three years of fieldwork with teachers, many realizations were made about becoming co-researchers and engaging in a collaborative knowledge-building process for developing an engaged pedagogical approach. The paper had two purposes: a) exploring the different layers of participation in PAR, and b) documenting the lead researcher’s continuous professional learning in understanding PAR. The lead researcher proposed “ignoring” to “autonomous” participation as levels. The lead researcher also changed from overly influencing roles on PAR to accepting co-researchers' voices and respecting their efforts for sustainable change.

The article deals with the relevant issue of using social media in the context of open science to disseminate the results of scientific research and implement the mission of institutions of social memory – libraries and museums – to preserve, study and popularize the national pedagogical heritage. It has been revealedthat in foreign and Ukrainian historiography there are no special studies on the spread of biographical knowledge in social networks. The online project is considered both as a multifunctional information resource and as a digital tool for educational activities, which, with the help of web technologies, demonstrates specially created open-access content to a wide range of users. For the first time, the paper analyzes the spread of biographical pedagogical knowledge through the development of online projects and their implementation by means of social networks. Biographical online projects of V. O. Sukhomlynskyi State Scientific and Educational Library of the National Academy of Educational Sciences of Ukraine and the Pedagogical Museum of Ukraine are characterized by the following parameters: systematized information in the form of a table (implementation model, name, web resource where the project was implemented, implementation period, hashtag), grouping by type (collective, individual, calendar, thematic), a brief description of the content of each project, a graphic layout of the project. The examples of biographical online projects have been given. The article reveals thetrend of an increase in the number of biographical online projects in the Ukrainian segment of the Facebook social network during 2020–2022, caused by the decolonization of the Ukrainian humanities. 4 proven models for implementing biographical online projects have been proposed for a widespread use: "Online project on Facebook", "Online project on Facebook and Instagram", Online project on Facebook using a web portal/website", Online project on Facebook as a source ofvirtual exhibition on the website". It has been proven that the use of social networks for the dissemination of pedagogical biography in the form of online projects in the educational and scientific space is not only an effective way of providing access to the results of scientific research to a wide audience, but it also contributes to the restoration and preservation of the national memory.

Background: Armed conflict in Colombia has severely affectedthe mental health of individuals and communities. Factors such as poverty, inequality and social exclusion have exacerbated consequences such as depression and posttraumaticstress disorder. However, a perspective that transcends the mental deficit paradigm in addressing the social determinants of health in these contexts allows us to recognize how political and social conditions determine people's physical and mental health and the need to strengthen their skills and capacities. The Colectivo Tejiendo Memoria, composed of older adult victims of the conflict, is a remarkable example of the capacity for organization and psychosocial recovery through collective memory and civil resistance in the province of Sonsón, Antioquia. Methods: A qualitative approach based on the action without harm (ASD) methodological framework was used to implement photo elucidation workshops and mediate group interviews to capture the memories and experiences of the participants. The contentanalysis allowed codifying the actions, agents and knowledge generated by the group around psychosocial recovery and community agency. Results: This study reveals that the collective has played a crucial role in the preservation of historical memory, the promotion of emotional well-being and the generation of social agency; its actions have allowed the creation of safe spaces for psychosocial recovery through rituals, commemorations and the visibility of the victims. This promoted their consolidation as political actors who manage and sustain memory and reparation in their community. Conclusions: The experience of the Colectivo Tejiendo Memoria offers an innovative approach to the social determinants of mental health in the context of armed conflict, highlighting the capacity of communities to manage their own recovery through practices of resistance and solidarity.
