identidad cultural, aprendizaje del inglés, perspectiva de género en mujeres indígenas, enfoque multilingüe, intervención pedagógicaResumen
El presente estudio de caso se derivó de una intervención pedagógica en el marco del proyecto Visiones de la Tierra, que contó con la participación de 18 mujeres indígenas colombianas pertenecientes a diversas comunidades indígenas de varias regiones de Colombia. El proyecto Visiones de la Tierra surgió como iniciativa en colaboración con la Red colombiana de mujeres indígenas (RedColmia) y la Universidad de Caldas. Dicho proyecto buscó reforzar el inglés académico de las participantes en un programa en línea desarrollado a lo largo de un año. Profesores universitarios e invitados internacionales dirigieron las sesiones bimestrales, explorando visiones de la Tierra mediante textos de autores indígenas que abordaban la exclusión y discriminación históricas que han enfrentado las mujeres indígenas en la academia. Los datos de este trabajo se recolectaron por medio de dos encuestas semiestructuradas y artefactos creados por las participantes. A pesar de los debates sobre la erosión lingüística, las percepciones de las participantes hacen énfasis en la importancia del aprendizaje del inglés como herramienta de empoderamiento. Los hallazgos revelan que el aprendizaje del inglés bajo una perspectiva de género y un enfoque multilingüe posibilita la valoración cultural, la redefinición identitaria y es un medio para compartir las singulares miradas indígenas sobre la Tierra. El presente estudio ofrece claridades en la intersección entre el desarrollo de la lengua, la identidad cultural y el empoderamiento académico de las comunidades indígenas.
