El Sistema de Educación Intercultural Bilingüe y el Derecho a la Educación de los niños, niñas y adolescentes de la comunidad indígena de Chibuleo

Abstract

Throughout history, members of different indigenous peoples and nationalities have been oppressed, marginalized, and exploited. For decades, their most basic rights were denied, and after several social struggles and protests, this social group achieved the vindication of their rights. However, even today, there are many aspects that need to improve for this social group to achieve true material equality. Regarding the right to education, it must be remembered that, for decades, this social group was trapped in a traditional and homogenizing educational model. With the Constitution of 1945, the right to education of this social group would be greatly benefited with the creation of the Bilingual Intercultural Education System. However, even today, 78 years after the creation of this new educational model, there are large gaps that need to be closed for this social group to fully enjoy their right to education. The present research project constitutes basic research, with an exploratory methodology and a qualitative approach. And through the collection of information from primary and secondary sources, it has been possible to determine as the main result of this research project that the bilingual Intercultural Education System, through the Bilingual Intercultural Millennium Educational Intercultural Education System, through the Bilingual Intercultural Millennium Educational Unit of Chibuleo, helps to guarantee the right to education of the children and adolescents od this indigenous community.
