FRANCO-VALENCIA, Marco Heli  e  PRAGER, Marina Sánchez de. Life plan for the Yaquivá indigenous reservation in the municipality of Inza, Cauca Colombia, from the perspective of agroecology. Agron. colomb. [online]. 2018, vol.36, n.2, pp.143-151. ISSN 0120-9965.  https://doi.org/10.15446/agron.colomb.v36n2.71996.

The Nasa indigenous community on the Yaquivá reservation, located in the municipality of Inza (Cauca-Colombia), has designed a "Life Plan", in which education plays a fundamental role. This is reflected in the Community Education Project carried out at the Jiisa Fxiw agroecological school. However, within the Colombian ethnographic literature, there are no records that systematize these life plans from the agroecologi-cal approach. In order to help fill this gap, the objective of this study was to analyze the life plan for the Yaquivá reservation from the agroecology perspective. Participatory action research was used for the research methodology. The results identified the legal and constitutional frameworks that support this plan and action document as the main strength. In addition, the document facilitates the development of institutionalism with autonomy and identity. It was concluded that the life plan for the Yaquivá reservation, in itself, constitutes a force that surpasses the technological and productive (distributive), socioeconomic (structural), and sociopolitical (dialectical) dimensions. Additionally, as part of the Nasa indigenous community, the entire life plan is influenced and determined by its own worldview, i.e. its spiritual perspective.

Palavras-chave : dimensions of agroecological research; distributive dimension; structural dimension; dialectical dimension; spiritual dimension.
