Mingas de la Imagen: Red de Creación Intercultural

Project:

Intertribal/Intercultural Gatherings to share Indigenous knowledge, Native Languages, Native Art and Media

Regions: Bogota, Colombia, Abya Yala
Grant Awarded: 2019

We support Intertribal/Intercultural Gatherings of Mingas de la Imagen, a this collective that since 2016 has been organizing cultural events and actions (oralitures, performance and audio-visual creation), seeking to enhance and complement, through exchange and creation between cultures, the experiences and growth of Indigenous youth from multiple Native nations, who for various reasons are forced or decide to travel to urban centers in Colombia to continue their university studies. One of the main goals is to establish an autonomous network of intercultural creation and a University center of intercultural studies.
