GARCIA-SEGURA, Sonia. Cultural diversity and the desing of educational policies in Peru. Rev. Int. Investig. Cienc. Soc. [online]. 2017, vol.13, n.2, pp.289-304. ISSN 2226-4000.  https://doi.org/10.18004/riics.2017.diciembre.289-304.

This research paper presents a description and analysis of the educational policies that have been implemented in Peru since the beginning of the twentieth century. This country is characterised by a multicultural and multilingual character and by the fact that the movement of indigenous communities has been a permanent feature of their social and educational struggles and demands. This has led not only to an appreciation of the different indigenous languages, but also to the reassessment of the guidelines and objectives underpinning educational policies as well as teacher training programs. Being able to know how educational policies aimed at indigenous populations have been shaped and the political, social and economic conditions under which they have been developed provides a scenario that makes it possible to suggest the guidelines and objectives of an educational model that addresses the real and perceived needs of all Peruvian society.

Palabras clave : intercultural education; cultural diversity; biculturalism; multiculturalism; language policy.
