Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/jspui/handle/2011/17643This study presents an approach to the policies and practices of school education among the Karipuna people in the Indigenous territories located in the municipality of Oiapoque-AP. The emphasis is on highlighting the role of the Karipuna Indigenous people in organizing educational policies and projects from the school as a tool of domination and assimilation to the school as a space for cultural empowerment and an integral part of the community’s educational system and life plan both within and beyond the territory. It includes a brief overview of the historical introduction of school education among the Karipuna, their collective struggles and advocacy for new meanings and transformations in schooling to better serve the people’s lives, with focus on major demands, challenges, and contradictions in implementing what is guaranteed by specific Indigenous education legislation. Initially a colonial tool for erasing ancestral cultures, the school has now also become a space for affirming and valuing the people's cultural and linguistic diversity. One of the objectives was to examine the policies, actions, and schooling models currently being practiced in Indigenous schools. The study explored some pedagogical practices by Karipuna teachers, observing how Indigenous knowledge and practices engage in dialogue with formal education, as well as how differentiated and intercultural processes contribute to building school curricula grounded in the community’s reality, experiences, and way of life.Acesso AbertoAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Educação escolar indígenaSaberes indígenasPolíticas educacionaisEscolarizaçãoInterculturalidadePovo karipunaIndigenous school educationIndigenous knowledgeEducational policiesSchoolingInterculturalityDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::ANTROPOLOGIAPOVOS INDÍGENAS E POPULAÇÕES TRADICIONAISANTROPOLOGIA SOCIAL
