Abstract
This exploratory study uses qualitative methods to analyze the impact of conversations in the Border Pedagogy “Cafés” on more than 500 binational educators from the Tijuana/San Diego area on the U.S.–Mexico border. Four important themes emerged from the analysis that describe the impact of the cafés and offer a strong foundation on which to build a pedagogy for borderlands education that is unique and takes the contextual needs of the binational community into account.
