In this dialogue, I would like to offer to the reader an introduction to ethnomathematics. What it is, where it comes from, what it worries about, and most importantly, what is its agenda for the 21st century. In doing so, I generated an interview with Ubiratan D'Ambrosio that discusses important issues related to the ethnomathematics as a program. It is hoped that the themes discussed in this interview will add to the growing dialogue that surrounds ethnomathematics.
