Description
Summary:<p>On this article I suggest to present preliminary progress in a study about Indigenous participation in a conventional university, the Universidad Nacional del Nordeste (Argentina), where an institutional program which objectives, among others, have to do with indigenous inclusion in undergraduate careers is implemented, as well as their participation in its management. This participation is promoted seeking to contribute to the concretion of the right defined in international, national and provincial state regulations; and on a reading of the journeys accomplished by the indigenous organizations in the Chaco province. Descriptions of spaces and participation experiences framed the „Indigenous Peoples Program‟ on the above-mentioned University. The subjects are indigenous representatives who are members of the advisory commission of the program. They hold that position due to their trajectory in socio-ethnic organizations, they are adults but they don´t belong to any university faculty. It is interesting to initiate an inquiring over the knowledge related to the organization, the struggle and the policy that these individuals bare, as well as the abilities they set on over the management instances they are part of.</p><p>At the end the posed topics allow to present reflections over the possibilities of dialogues between cultures and the place of the „informants‟ and the researcher-performer on this study.</p>
