This article specifically revises the different types of experiences of higher-education offered to the indigenous youth of the Peruvian Amazon region, and it builds on information gathered throughout the last decade of following and studying these experiences. The article begins with a discussion of the programs for bilingual teachers, which has been the prioritized form of access to higher education offered to the indigenous peoples. Then it analyzes different cases of affirmative action programs promoted by the Peruvian State and Peruvian universities, such as quotas and special scholarship programs. Finally, it presents the case of the intercultural universities, most of which have been created only a few years ago, and it discusses their real possibilities of becoming an alternative form of engaging with intercultural education.En las últimas décadas, el acceso de jóvenes indígenas a la educación superior, así como la creación de universidades interculturales, han sido objeto de interés y de debate en América Latina. En el presente artículo se revisan los distintos tipos de ofertas y de experiencias de educación superior para indígenas amazónicos en el Perú implementados en los últimos años, y se busca realizar un balance sobre los logros alcanzados y las posibilidades reales de oferta de una educación superior intercultural. El presente trabajo es fruto del análisis y estudio continuo, hechos durante la última década, sobre distintas experiencias implementadas en el Perú, especialmente aquellas orientadas a la juventud indígena amazónica. El artículo discute, en primer lugar, el caso de los programas de formación de maestros bilingües. Este tipo de programas es el que tiene una mayor trayectoria como oferta de educación superior explícitamente orientada a la población indígena. En segundo lugar, se presentan algunos programas de acción afirmativa implementados por las universidades o por el Estado, ya sea a través de sistemas de cuotas de admisión o de becas especiales. Finalmente, se aborda el caso de las universidades interculturales, que son las de más reciente creación, y se discuten sus posibilidades reales como espacios de formación intercultural, así como sus posibilidades de sobrevivencia en el futuro cercano.Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú2017-12-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/anthropologica/article/view/19000Anthropologica del Departamento de Ciencias Sociales; Vol. 35 No. 39 (2017): Indigenous youth, interculturality and higher education; 99-122Anthropologica; Vol. 35 Núm. 39 (2017): Jóvenes indígenas, interculturalidad y educación superior; 99-1222224-64280254-9212reponame:Revistas - Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstname:Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perúinstacron:PUCPspahttp://revistas.pucp.edu.pe/index.php/anthropologica/article/view/19000/19627https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/190002020-08-01T01:38:51Z
