Abstract

The goal of this article is to assess the state of affairs of Intercultural Bilingual Education (IBE) policies in Argentina. IBE encompasses educational proposals designed to address the specific needs of ethnolinguistic minorities. In the first section of this paper, the educational policies on cultural and linguistic diversity are contextualized historically. Later, IBE is defined considering main characteristics of this education policy. Finally, the conclusions list the challenges, goals that have yet to be achieved and the future perspectives of this educational policy. This article contributes to the field of studies on diversity in the schooling of ethnically different groups.
