Abstract

HECHT, Ana Carolina et al. "I want to study for my community": Educational Trajectories of Toba/Qom and Mbyá Guaraní Women Teachers in Argentina. Cuad. antropol. soc. [online]. 2018, n.47, pp.105-122. ISSN 1850-275X.

Within Intercultural Bilingual Education studies, formative experiences of indigenous teachers have been little explored, even more when considering women teachers. This article addresses two big challenges, as we first attempt to relate the formative experiences of Toba/Qomand Mbyá Guaraní women teachers from two provinces (Chaco and Misiones) with different trajectories in their schooling. The second challenge is theoretical and methodological, as we aim to introduce life histories within an ethnographic approach. We systematize topics such as: intergenerational changes, gender relationships, cultural knowledge and school, religious formative experiences, linguistic capacities, identification processes, teacher training and role.

Keywords : Indigenous Women; Teachers; Intercultural Bilingual Education; Educational Trajectories; Mbyá and Toba/Qom.
