摘要:For over twenty years, indigenous students, sapiens, shamans, along withexperts holding specific knowledge, and political leaders have been continuously presentand active in the University. These presences gave place to (exemplary) ethnographicscenes, hereby reported in dialogue with statements of political, cosmopolitical andepistemological nature about knowledge practices that involve different people, anddifferent cultural traditions. Focusing either on knowledge practices that occur duringmeeting and training in the University, or on similar interactions regularly carriedout in indigenous territories, the paper explores the arrangements and adjustmentsof relationships between different indigenous people and communities. In addition,by looking at the training programs for indigenous teachers, it aims to highlight thecore intentions of educational public policies, and to explore the conceptual shifts andsuspensions of meaning that destabilize what we can assert about the manners andmeanings of “our knowledge”, as produced in relation with different indigenous partners.
