Análisis de las políticas públicas sobre formación docente para la Educación Intercultural Bilingüe contemporánea (2007-2021): Una perspectiva desde actores

Abstract

In Ecuador from 2007 with the election of Rafael Correa as president of the republic, a new political situation begins in the country. One of the issues that marked the dispute between the government and actors of the indigenous movement was Intercultural Bilingual Education. This occurred because through the implementation of public policies, the State assumed control and regulation of the Intercultural Bilingual Education System. Together with this restructuring, public policies were implemented on teacher training for Intercultural Bilingual Education. For this reason, the main objective of this research work is to analyze how the public policies implemented from 2007 to 2021 mobilized and generated strategies of different actors regarding the teacher training strategy for the SEIB. The methodology used starts from the socio-critical paradigm, with the application of a qualitative approach and the application of techniques such as documentary analysis and the semi-structured interview. The results found show that the policies on teacher training mainly land in the creation of the National University of Education with the offer of an undergraduate degree in Intercultural Bilingual Education. The main challenge to develop a policy on teacher training for the EIB is the geographical situation and the lack of budget allocation by the State to improve the coverage of the academic offer. Finally, as a conclusion, it can be established that there is still the formulation of regulations or mechanisms to articulate teacher training in the territory and with different academic institutions and the State.
