    En este artículo pretendemos profundizar en las implicaciones que puede tener el uso de la técnica de Teatro Foro en contextos de Secundaria. Para ello, se describe el programa de intervención desarrollado en cuatro centros de secundaria en el País Vasco, y en el que la técnica de Teatro Foro se convierte en una de las estrategias metodológicas centrales. Desde esta experiencia, podemos extraer conclusiones relacionadas con la relevancia de esta técnica a la hora de generar un espacio democrático y de ciudadanía donde los y las jóvenes pueden debatir y explorar alternativas para el abordaje de problemáticas de su interés y realidad inmediata.

    This article seeks to explore the potential implications of using the Forum Theatre technique in secondary school settings. To do so, we describe the intervention programme undertaken in four secondary schools in the Basque Country (Spain) in which the Forum Theatre technique was one of the core methodological strategies. Based on this experience, we can draw conclusions related to the relevance of this technique in generating a democratic space of citizenship where youths can debate and explore alternatives when addressing issues of interest to them from their immediate reality.
