A relação intercultural entre o IFPE Campus Pesqueira e o povo Xukuru do Ororubá

Abstract

Higher Education institutions are possible spaces to promote interculturality, recognizing the diversity of cultures existing in the world, therefore, it is necessary to have discussions that bring possible appreciation to the knowledge and lifestyles of traditional peoples. In this investigative process, in addition to bringing the theory of interculturality, the concepts of Good Living and Ecology of Knowledge are also worked on, in which the first, born from indigenous peoples, brings an alternative vision of life and development (Acosta, 2016), and the second, defends the need for discussions and exchange of knowledge between different people and cultures (Santos, 2008). Thus, this research work sought to understand the intercultural relationship between the IFPE Campus Pesqueira and the Xukuru people of Ororubá from the perspective of a graduate, teacher from the municipality and Xukuru indigenous person. To obtain the results, firstly, a bibliographical research was carried out in search of a theoretical basis, and secondly, an interview was carried out with the subject of this investigation using a semi-structured interview method and a perspective of the Life History methodology, which gives the interviewee a total freedom to express your thoughts and knowledge as you see fit. As a result, it was found, through the subject's point of view, that the Federal Fisheries Institute can be considered an institution that opens up space for speech, promotes interculturality together with original peoples and moves towards a possible decolonization of their know/knowledge and its educational base.
