Conceptions about mental health vary, as they are crossed by sociocultural, historical, material and symbolic aspects that organize the realities of different societies around the world. In this sense, the health-disease process permeates socio-symbolic aspects, influenced by trust, knowledge and care that circulate and give new meaning in the established structure of an organized community group. When it comes to indigenous peoples, although there is no single indigenous identity, as there are sociocultural differences that distinguish each ethnic group, they generally understand changes in health as a result of manifestations culminated by spiritual and natural forces. The present study aims to present processes of indigenization of mental health with indigenous peoples of Ceará. Its purpose is to express experiences of conversation circles articulated from the Freirian culture circle, from a perspective that aims for health practices that are decolonial, privileging village knowledge. This is qualitative, basic and descriptive research, of the action research type. The study addresses the experience of 7 conversations about mental health in different indigenous villages located in rural communities in Ceará. The Circles were recorded in audio format. Then, the dialogues that occurred were transcribed and detailed using Content Analysis by Laurence Bardin (2011). From the analysis of the information produced, three categories emerged, namely: conceptions about indigenous mental health, structural violence as a factor of suffering, SUS operations in indigenous territories. These were central elements in collective constructions in culture circles and are essential in the discussion of indigenous health. Therefore, it is necessary to understand populations' conceptions of health, considering their social, cultural and political aspects. Therefore, we can make popular knowledge an ally of scientific knowledge, resulting in the creation of new knowledge, which will enable a new vision of the health-disease binomial.

Unveiling the spatiality of indigenous women as shown from written and visual narratives of mapping processes is one of the greatest challenges to be taken on by the history of Latin American critical cartography. Despite advances in the fields of indigenous history, women and gender relations, themes such as native women and territoriality, an aesthetic of absence, neglect and disappearance is still strongly evident. Through written documents, a map and ethnographic data from Jê peoples, this article offers a skeletal methodological path taken to reach the spatial subjectivity of indigenous women in a mapping expedition to the hinterlands of Southern Brazil that took place between the years 1768-1773.

Este artigo tem por objetivo explanar sobre a trajetória indígena no Brasil e os conflitos que envolvem o direito ao uso da terra indígena, perpassando pelo impacto trazido pela colonização, sobre elementos culturais, folkcomunicação, hibridização cultural e sobre o uso da terra quanto recurso necessário às atividades produtivas e à reprodução física e cultural dos povos, tendo como eixo central apresentar as problemáticas que envolvem o acesso e reconhecimento do direito a terra indígena, em específico, na aldeia indígena do bairro Jaraguá/SP. A pesquisa foi realizada por meio de levantamentos bibliográficos e sites oficiais. Compreende-se a propriedade da terra como um direito originário, ou seja, que antecede até mesmo as legislações da República Federativa, o direito que lhes é garantido, como forma de reparação histórica em respeito ao que representa esse povo.

The Apinayé are a Brazilian indigenous ethnic group that live in a transition zone between the Cerrado and the Amazon. This study primarily aims to understand the meaning that art holds for Apinayé indigenous students at a Brazilian Indigenous School. We used an ethnographic research methodology, while also observing art classes and distributing open questionnaires to these students. The results showed that the arts produced by the indigenous people mostly refer to the body paintings and cultural artifacts they produce, such as necklaces made of beads, fans, coufo, and babassu coconuts, among others. In addition, the indigenous people characterize the Brazilian indigenous culture as something that is extremely significant for their lives, as art represents not only their reality but also their history, struggle, and resistance. Finally, the study suggests that the discipline of art in the indigenous school can help the students understand that the handicrafts they develop and the body painting, babassu coconut straw beds, and other artifacts they produce are also artistic and aesthetic objects that represent their story. Therefore, they are not dissociated from Brazilian art and culture.

The paper deals with the importance of using ethnomapping elements for the instrumentation of Geography classes, being developed at the Tatakti Kyikatêjê State School in the Mãe Maria Indigenous Land, Kyikatêjê village, with practical applications of the ethnomapping elements with 6th grade students. The lack of didactic material in the understanding and understanding in the studies of the landscapes of the village led the work to make proposals of practical applications of the elements of ethnomapulation in the indigenous school and to elaborate with the students a Geoecological Profile containing the elements that condition the landscape of the village. Being developed with the aid and use of the technologies of geographic information, the software CorelDraw. Using the theoretical references systemic and geoecological, the definition of ethnomapulation according to the conception of some authors as the one of Almeida (2003), Correia (2007), Acserald and Coli (2008) was adopted. The work is developed with the delimitation of the study area, lectures, field work and graphic composition of the new Geoecological Profile. As a result, the new Geoecological Profile of the village has been elaborated, which has provided significant teaching to the students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article aims to explain about an indigenous trajectory in Brazil and the conflicts involving the right to use indigenous land, going through the impact caused by colonization, on cultural elements, popular communication, cultural hybridization and on the use of land with limited use to the productive activities and physical and cultural reproduction of the peoples, having as central axis the presentation of problems that involve access and recognition of the right to indigenous land, specifically, in the indigenous village of the Jaraguá / SP neighborhood. A survey was carried out through bibliographic surveys and official websites. Understand a property of the land as an original right, that is, that precedes even the same as the laws of the Federative Republic, the right that they are guaranteed, as a form of historical recovery in respect of what this people represents.

In this study, we aim to problematize the pedagogical work with commemorative dates within institutions of Early Childhood Education. Among the commemorative dates, we took the 'Indian Day', given the relevance and frequency with which this date is worked in schools and in view of Law n°. 11.645, March 10 of 2008, which deals with the obligatory teaching of History and Culture of indigenous peoples. It is a theoretical study, based on authors of the modernity/coloniality group, among others, that help us think about the theme. First, we bring a reflection on the commemorative dates in the pedagogical work. In the sequence, we are dealing with 'Indian day', a subject that is still presented to children with stereotypes and prejudices. Subsequently, as a result of such problematizations, we emphasize the relevance of new directions in school work with children through critical interculturality and the creation of new alternatives of thought and society. As a conclusion, the work with the indigenous theme in education should be based on the equal consideration of the different forms of knowledge, of being and thinking the world. Considering that all subjects are knowledge builders, including children, mechanized and meaningless activities are meaningless. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This research analyzes the use of the Digital Libraries of the Biblioteca Central (BCE) by the indigenous students of the University of Brasília (UnB), precisely in the accomplishment of academic and research activities. The specific objectives of this study are: to identify the academic profiles of the indigenous students in the UnB; detect if these students are familiar with the BCE/UnB digital libraries and distinguish their informational skills in the use of these platforms; check how do they use them in their academic and research activities; and, finally, to identify possible difficulties of the indigenous students in the process. This study is theoretical, exploratory and descriptive. From the methodological point of view, it is a quali-quantitative, non-experimental and ethnographic approach. The sample included indigenous students enrolled in UnB. The results showed that these students access digital libraries, however, with minimal frequency. Regarding informational behavior, although the study shows that they are influenced by modernity, when they seek information to meet their information needs, BCE digital libraries are not a priority because they prefer to access the Google search engine.

The Amazonia has awakened interest in the world, due to the peculiarities of its biome and its multiple ethnicities, cultures and religions. Pope Francis called a special Synod: "Amazonia. New Paths for the Church and for an integral ecology ". One runs the risk of not knowing the long walk already carried out by the churches of the region and one does not learn from its history. So, the article aims to show how in recent years the church with an amazonian face has been developed in the region promoting the care of the Common Home. Such option is the safe basis for undertaking new paths today. Two main sources will be used: the conclusions of the meetings of the bishops of the Brazilian Amazon and the documents of the Conferences of the Latin American Episcopate. Initially, it will be shown how, starting from Medellin, the Church of the Brazilian Amazon assumed pastoral guidelines to respond to the region's appeals, especially to indigenous peoples. Next, the pastoral options and vision of ecology emanating from Puebla, Santo Domingo and Aparecida will be identified. It will be pointed out how the Church of the Brazilian Amazon has assumed an increasing commitment to social and environmental issues. Finally, some challenges and pastoral opportunities will be presented from the Church in the Pan Amazon. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
