Sumario:The digital divide is recognized as a form of social exclusion that affects native peoples to a greater extent. In Oaxaca, due to its high composition of the indigenous population, a historical continuum of inequalities is observed that is expressed in poverty, marginalization, low schooling and low purchasing power, which act as barriers to access and use of ICTs and frame the digital divides. This study analyzes the sociodemographic, economic, cultural and geographical factors that affect the access and use of ICTs by the indigenous population of the state, as well as the digital inclusion policies undertaken to close the digital divide. The findings reveal that education, purchasing power and digital inclusion policies are conditioning factors to promote access and use of technology. There is a glimpse of the need to design and apply digital policies with the participation of the three levels of government (federal, state and municipal) and local social agents, under a framework of recognition of cultural and linguistic diversity, policies beyond the instrumentalist character, encourage public-private investment in telecommunications, in addition to continuing to improve the well-being of the indigenous population.
