DIAZ-SANCHEZ, Edisson. Practices of Resistance in the Use of the Nasa Yuwe Language in the Ancestral Territory of the Nasa Indigenous Reservation. Educ. ciudad [online]. 2024, n.47, e3120.  Epub Oct 23, 2024. ISSN 0123-0425.  https://doi.org/10.36737/01230425.n47.2024.3120.

This article is the result of a research that analyzed the practices of resistance that strengthen the use of the Nasa Yuwe language in the Nasa Páez Indigenous Reservation - Huila (Colombia). The conceptual basis is based on the decolonization of knowledge and epistemologies of the South, where the project was approached from a qualitative approach, using historical-hermeneutic research and the educational ethnographic method, due to the descriptive exercise of interaction and observation. Among the results, it is evident that much of the population presents difficulties in reading and writing the language because its use had been specified in orality. Faced with this reality, the reservation advances practices that revitalize the value of their mother tongue and their cultural identity, such as the incorporation of the subject Nasa yuwe in the Ethno-educational Institution of the territory and the unification of the alphabet of the Nasa people.

Keywords : Nasa community; inclusive education; epistemologies of the South; cultural identity; interculturality; micro-curriculum; value of language.
