Participation of the indigenous women of Rama Cay, RAAS in the decision-making spaces

Abstract

The study is focused on the participation of Rama’s indigenous women from the community of Rama Cay in decision-making spaces. The objective was to understand the structural logic of this dynamic. Qualitative methodology was implemented and it focused on the critical theory, particularly those that are inscribed in the knowledge of the implicit rules that generate action and interpretation. Technically it describes and interprets the performance of the Rama’s women in certain political contexts, which necessarily involves getting inside the spheres of power. The study presents the situation of indigenous women from Rama Cay community in decision-making spaces, as well as the constraints and challenges to achieve greater integration and qualitative participation in these areas.
