Trayectoria del ejercicio del derecho a la educación de los estudiantes de la Universidad Autónoma Indígena de México

Abstract

The person from the beginning of his life struggles to survive, he learns from everything around him to integrate it into his environment, learning has no end, education extends all stages of their human development, however, he can't do it alone, He has to search a the individuals around him, both from his family and social context. Formal education is a human aspiration, guided and protected by agreements and conventions of global and local scope, which has become a right to education. An investigation was developed in two phases: first, a bibliographical documentary research to recover text related to the right to education and in a second phase, an online questionnaire was applied to higher education students of the Universidad Autónoma Indígena de México (UAIM) to know the experiences of the student of what he has lived in each of the stages of his school way (elementary, middle school, high school and college), their motivations to study at the UAIM and their point of view on the right to education. Subsequently, through interpretive research, explain the findings obtained contrasted with the revised documentation. Referring particularly to the right to education in the Mexican historical context, we have found various intervention topics such as: the legal framework that supports said right, educational inequalities at the levels of basic education, half education higher and higher education; indigenous education; educational inequality caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; unofficial basic education; and higher education at UAIM. The indicators of the right to education made it possible to found out the fulfillment and commitment of the UAIM. and the confinement mechanisms due to COVID-19 cause new forms of inequality to emerge.
