Qualification: Intercultural University Maloca Project

Summary: The project consolidates the processes of identity construction and interculturality in the public universities of Manizales, through the joint collaborative work of their respective intercultural and intercultural indigenous chairs, for the implementation of the realization and operation of an intercultural maloca , as a place for the co-creation of the social fabric and the construction of peace, strengthened from the ancestral knowledge of indigenous students to other students and to the community in general.

The place tends for the communities to appropriate their knowledge, based on the social, political, educational and cultural practices and experiences that are complemented by the academic training and the training received in the community of origin, enabling spaces for interaction, knowledge and collective learning in a transversal way to university curricula that generate critical-reflexive interculturality.
