Abstract

DUNCK-CINTRA, Ema Marta  and  SANTANA, Aurea Cavalcante. The Training of Teachers and the “Being More” Indigenous. R. Educ. Públ. [online]. 2017, vol.26, n.62, pp.433-453. ISSN 2238-2097.  https://doi.org/10.5965/01045962v26n622017453.

With a study based on field and bibliographical research which entangles decolonial authors and authors that discuss about teacher training, this article analyzes the position of Chiquitano teachers and shows the communities of the Portal de Encantado Indigenous Land, through education, are gradually transforming the “being less” into “being more” (FREIRE, 2014b). It is possible to state that the creation of the Chiquitano school and the teacher training gradually made themselves and their “new” world, register their culture, value ancestral knowledge, produce science and define their pedagogical practices.

Keywords : Indigenous Teacher Training; “Being More”; Decoloniality.
