Intercultural Multilingual Education in Latin America: Mexico, Guatemala, Colombia, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Paraguay, and Norway

This document deals with Intercultural Bilingual Education (IBE), its current status and the concepts and processes driving it today – and in a certain way the conflicts encompassing it. It contains information on Mexico, Guatemala, Colombia, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Paraguay, and includes some data and comments on Norway. Certainly all Latin America is involved in the topic, one way or another, but for now this is the geographical scope of the paper. It seeks to give an overview of the whole and profile a few specific aspects by country.
