Summary: | The experience of research with indigenous groups (Guarani and Kaingang) in two universities of Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil) has provoked reflections about interculturality and the meaning of collaborative and participatory actions in this context. In this paper, we start from the practice, of systematic meetings with indigenous people through education, research and extension; we problematize their contributions to universities and, at the same time, we seek to develop a theoretical discussion on our own actions, reviewing the trajectories based on dialogues and theories developed during the continuous experiences of collaborative work. With this, we are willing to think about the meaning of theories and methodologies that are built in the dialogue that involves our investigations and that entails the advancing of the living conditions of indigenous partners, understanding the importance of authorship and of pondering over one’s own reality. |
