Indigenous school education founded on intercultural dialogue that respect the way of being and living of each people, although guaranteed in law, is still a reality to be built by many hands. This article presents results of research about the pedagogical experience of non-indigenous teachers in the education of the indigenous people Wai-Wai of Mapuera village, municipality of Oriximiná/PA, in order to analyze the relations, dialogues and difficulties faced by teachers in the effectiveness of a proposal for intercultural education in Indigenous villages. Data were possible through literature review and semi structured interview with teachers who work in primary education of the indigenous school Mapuera. The results show that there is still a long way to go to an indigenous education that is instrument of struggle for the preservation of indigenous culture and traditions.
