"Ewaya" espacios de aprendizaje y desarrollo yanakuna

Abstract

This document consists of X chapters that contain general and specific information about indigenous communities in Colombia, such as the Yanakona ethnic group. Through this research are highlighted social, cultural, and anthropological aspects that were used to propose a design of a non-formal educational center. The proposed design is well-documented and supported based on the Yanakona´s need to keep its traditions, customs, and indigenous architecture. After this, it is described the design methodology based on the exploration and description of collected data and applicable references in order to suggest the best architectural model, and finally, conclusions and recommendations are included. It is worthwhile to mention that this project approach is to build an educational center based on the “New School” model that will be complemented in other aspects in order to make it viable for the Yanakona community.
