A Presença indígena na UFRB: estudo sobre ingresso e permanência dos/as estudantes indígenas no centro de formação de professores da UFRB

Abstract

This monograph aims to address aspects about the access and permanence of indigenous students in Higher Education, specifically in view of the reality of the Teacher Training Center (CFP) of the Federal University of Recôncavo da Bahia (UFRB). In order to do so, elements of the history of Indigenous Education will be dealt with over time, with an analysis of the main historical accounts, especially as of the Constitution of 1988, and analyzes will be carried out in the Edict nº 08/2015 of april 2015, through which data and information about the entry of indigenous students into the Institution were obtained. The subject of enrollment and the permanence of these students in Higher Education is of great relevance to society, since the origins of the brazilian people are directly related to the history of the indigenous peoples. Through their constant militancy, the indigenous gradually began to be seen as part of society, being inserted mainly in the school environment, through struggles for rights to a better quality of life and respect for their peoples. From this context, we will emphasize the studies of the following researchers: Luis Donizetti Benzi Grupioni (1996), Gersem dos Santos Luciano - Baniwa, LIMA, Antônio Carlos de Souza (2007, 2010, 2014), Luis Roberto de Paula, Renata Gérard Bondim, among others. It is hoped that, with the results of this research, it will be possible to bring greater visibility to the theme, so that improvement and social progress can be made with respect to the valorization of indigenous culture, including highlighting the role of Higher Education in this process.
