Los Kamëntšá Biyá: Siembran Semillas de Vida en Bogotá Kamentsá Yenštšan, Mondjen Vidam Tšabe Jenay, Na Bacatá Wavaynenš

Abstract

The purpose of this thesis is to analyze and understand the permanence, adaptations and ruptures that occur in the raising practices of the indigenous people Kamëntšá Biyá in the city of Bogotá, since the dynamism of culture and its transformation is considered as it is traveling in space and time. For this, parenting is taken as a synonym for the training process or self -education that is taught and learned in the first instance within the family and community. Therefore, the main argument of this thesis starts from understanding that education and pedagogy are beyond the scope of the educational institutional system. Based on this, the practices of parenting of indigenous families is an integral process that is not linear, whose orientation is for a lifetime because it transcends from its worldview, law of origin, traditional uses and customs; which are learned with the Tsbatsanamamág - Mother Earth, in the Shënyacentšán - tulpa, in the Jajañ -chagra, in the mingas, circles of the word, celebrations; since in these spaces the voice, thoughts and knowledge of the elders are heard, whose movement flows in a spiral. The methodological paradigm is qualitative, of ethnographic approach, in which the knowledge, memories and life experiences that the elderly, knowers, fathers, mothers and young people Kamëntšá who reside in the context of city are taken into account. In this way, it serves as a significant contribution to the political and educational sphere, it is already based on the current social and cultural realities of indigenous families, which contributes to mitigate discrimination, racism, marginalization towards these populations. As a result of this research process, pedagogical and methodological aspects of Kamëntšá Biyá's own aging practices were identified, where the heart pedagogies that have been transmitted through intergenerational formation are highlighted.
