Teclados de cartón. Tecnologías, identidad y comunicación entre jóvenes estudiantes de la ENOSIMAR en Mitú (Vaupés), Amazonía colombiana

Abstract

This investigative article looks at the relationship between young students at the María Reina Indigenous Superior Normal School (ENOMISAR, by its Spanish acronym) in Mitú, Vaupés, in Colombia, and the information and communication technologies (ICTs) they interact with. Through a review of the relevant literature, semi-structured interviews, ethnographic studies, and participatory workshops, we critically analyzed several topics. These included: the arrival of state-funded programs meant to broaden digital connectivity in the region, access to ICTs, conflicts around connectivity and identity transformation, and the educational situations that arise out of this conflict. We also suggest the difficulties and potentialities that ICTs bring to the table when it comes to the identity of indigenous youth in Mitú, Vaupés.
