DEMANDA POR UM CURSO DE LICENCIATURA EM LÍNGUA INDÍGENA NA UFRR

Abstract

It is an article for the purpose of composing a publication in the University of Acre Journal - UFAC, Muiraquitã. Its purpose is to understand the need for the creation of Higher Courses of Indigenous Languages. In order to fulfill this purpose, authors such as Bobbio (1992), Alvim (1995), UFRR (2001), Santos (2004), Canclini (2004), Baniwa (2008), Fernandes , Carvalho and Repetto (2009), Bernardi (2011), Baptaglin (2017), which made pos-sible a better understanding and contextualization of the present theme. Within the quantitative model the research indicates a real and current demand within the UFRR: the need for a higher education course in Indigenous Language. While new challenges are emerging within the framework of academic achievement and living, new administrative and training policy dynamics are needed to meet and guarantee the rights of different groups, including the indigenous people of Roraima and the country, as well as those of all those who have an interest in learning (in a certified manner) a course of these diverse / historically constituted cultures. From the collected data, it was possible to realize that a Course of Higher Education in Indigenous Language by Insikiran, would serve to overcome obstacles to obtain an academic certification of interested in learning one of the indigenous languages of Roraima, such as problems with displacement, housing and education costs.
