We have described the access and permanence to Higher Education of Mayangnas indigenous women in the URACCAN-Mines Campus, during the period 2000-2009, in Wasakin communities and the Fourth Mayangna Indigenous Territory (Mayangna Sauni Arunka), located in the municipalities of Rosita and Bonanza, North Atlantic Autonomous Region (RAAN). This study was performed using a qualitative perspective, based upon an ethnographic approach supported with observations and interviews. Cultural difference and poverty that implies a lack of monetary resources in cash have been the main obstacles limiting the indigenous youth to access and remain in Higher Education. Indigenous women are unable to exercise fully their citizen rights in equal conditions, and they lack of opportunities to develop their skills and talents. Pregnancies have been the main cause why most indigenous women leave college. It’s important to highlight, that only URACCAN has presence in the Mayangna Sauni Arunka territory and in the community of Wasakin to promote access and retention of women to higher education through a scholarship system. |
