Abstract in Portuguese
Nos contextos de pesquisa sobre patrimônio imaterial da humanidade e sobre instituições educacionais e formação do indivíduo, e desejoso de contribuir com subsídios para a implementação da Lei 10.639/03, defino como objetivo da presente investigação verificar e descrever peculiaridades educacionais do iromb, rito de iniciação e passagem da adolescência para a vida adulta, praticado pelo grupo étnico wongo, da República Democrática do Congo (RDC). Enfatizo seu significado sóciocultural e o quadro de valores e virtudes por ele privilegiado. Os dados de pesquisa advêm de fontes bibliográficas e de fontes orais de informação. Os informantes foram entrevistados em Bandundu e Kinshasa, estados da RDC, por três pesquisadores a quem supervisionei via telefone, Internet e correio. Do vasto universo teórico utilizado para a análise e interpretação dos dados destaco a contribuição de Ki-zerbo (2006), Kisimba (1997), Kumarer (1979), Mudiji (1989), Mungala (1999), Martinez (1989), Hampaté Bâ (1982) e Vansina (1982). Tendo privilegiado o tema relativo ao significado sóciocultural do iromb e o quadro de valores e virtudes por ele privilegiado, concluo que esse rito de iniciação e passagem cumpre relevante papel na formação de indivíduos solidários e conscientes de seus deveres e direitos na coletividade por eles integrada. Ao nível individual o iromb pode ser visto como um conjunto de recursos que têm por finalidade orientar para o reconhecimento dos direitos e deveres de cada indivíduo em seu grupo; explicitar o status e os papéis que competem a cada um e, ainda, promover possibilidade de acesso a formas elevadas de espiritualidade e de criatividade. Ao nível grupal esse rito, realizado no interior de sociedades iniciáticas, promove um diálogo entre as forças do destino de cada um e as exigências da vida social, como se a sociedade tomasse em suas mãos os destinos individuais para melhor realização dos propósitos pessoais e coletivos. Caracterizado por um conjunto de procedimentos nos quais interagem o sagrado e o profano, o iromb visa assegurar unidade e continuidade ao grupo.

Abstract in English
In the context of the researches about the immaterial heritage of the humanity and about educational institutions and individual formation, we would like to bring subsidies for the introduction of the brazilian law 10.639/03. The objective of this research is to verify and describe educational particularities of iromb, an initiation rite which is the passageway from teen to adult life practiced by the wongo ethnic group of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). I emphasize its socio-cultural meaning, the values and vertues priveleged by the wongo people. The data are from bibliographic and oral sources. Our informers were interviewed by three researchers by phone, internet and by mail in Bandundu and Kinshasa, states of DRC. From the big theoretical universe used for our analysis and interpretation of our data, I would like to point out the contributions of the following authors: Ki-zerbo (2006), Kisimba (1997), Kumarer (1979), Mudiji (1989), Mungala (1999), Martinez (1989), Hampaté Bâ (1982) and Vansina (1982). As I have privileged the topic about the socio-cultural rite of iromb and its board of values and virtues, I conclude that this initiation rite and passage hás a very important function in the formation of supportive individuals, conscious of their rights and duties in their community. At the individual level, iromb can be seen as a collection of resources which intend to advise people about the recognition of their rights and duties in their community; it intends also to make clearer the status and the role of each other and even, to promote possibilities to get access to high forms of spiritualism and creativity. At the group level, as this rite is realized into initiatory societies, it promotes a dialogue between individual destiny forces of each group member and the requirements of social life, as if the society had taken into its hands the individuals destiny to make better the individual and common intentions. Characterized by a collection of procedures in which the holy and the non-believer interact, the iromb rite intend to ensure unity and continuation to the wongo group.
