Abstract

This project proposes the dissemination of research carried out by indigenous academics, with a focus on master's and doctoral students and professors. The first step consists of mapping these researchers, and then producing documentary video reports about their work. The dissemination will be carried out through digital platforms. The research is guided by the following questions: What image can we construct for this other scientific knowledge? How can we construct this image through audiovisual media? How can we disseminate these scientific works from a point of view that welcomes other epistemologies? How can these non-colonial epistemologies impact the production of knowledge?
