Imágenes en tiempos de extensión: “Esta es la universidad peñi”

Abstract

What I will present here tries to show an experience of photographic narratives in an Intercultural Meeting, as a space time that allows to recognize senses, interpretations and meanings. This meeting was held in Córdoba in August 2019, during the visit of the executive board of the Council for the Development of Indigenous Communities (CODECI), the body that enforces the Indigenous Integral Law 2287/88, which brings together the majority of the Mapuche communities in the province of Río Negro. This knowledge visit to the University City was a proposal carried out by the SeCyT-UNC CONSOLIDAR Project (2018- 2022) "Thinking/Saying with and from Culture: Translations, Relationalities and Tensions "2 , and the Kamichingon communities and the CODECI. In order to reflect on the moment, I refer to the description of photography as a look that contributes to the field of extensionist knowledge, with the intention of showing crossovers between different strata of struggles and resistances, academics and native peoples, which allows for the strengthening of ties beyond the classrooms and the university environment. So much so that the contribution or meaning that has been given to that intercultural space once it has been set up allows for different readings and interpretations.
