Abstract

The state-of-the art of the redefinition of mathematical practices of the Sia Peoples for the consolidation of the Indigenous and Intercultural Higher Education in Colombia, is an article of epistemic dialogue of one's own mathematical knowledge and the different academic currents of ethnomathematics, evidencing the bibliographical review to postulate our understanding according to the cultural and cosmogonic experiences, which has been lost by the imposition of the conventional education system, therefore, it is a form of cultural vindication to decolonize the ancestral thought of our territory, it is also a way to position the Indigenous Own Educational System - SEIP, in the Indigenous Higher Education in Colombia and the cultural vindication of our people.

Furthermore, it postulates that the epistemic currents generated from a Western academic perspective are not the only way to recreate scientific thoughts, therefore, this dialogue allows us to rethink the creation of mathematical knowledge from a holistic and integral perspective. Besides, it postulates for the reproduction of scientific knowledge, human beings, regardless of culture, must consider social, cultural, spiritual and cosmogonic patterns of behavior. Likewise, the educational political gains at the national level in Colombia is demonstrated in detail, and how the indigenous peoples at the head of their regional organizations have founded and positioned their education in their territories, strengthening their life plans as indigenous peoples.
