DESCRIPTION:

We explore the way in which Indigenous Peoples’ institutions and normative systems govern their community relations and how they allow maintaining these systems in relationship with hegemonic jurisprudence.

PRINCIPLES:

Part of the premises on which the normative systems of Indigenous Peoples are built, attending to an order expressed in the rules that govern the behavior of the universe and that is expressed in relationships, rites, art and ways of life of the communities. It is also based on the principles of participatory action research.
