Abstract
This study explores the importance of Freire's critique of the ‘banking model' of education and its implications for contemporary challenges such as digitalization, cultural inclusivity, and sustainability. By addressing systemic barriers, Freire's concepts offer valuable strategies for fostering critical consciousness, cooperative learning, and equitable opportunities.
