National Meeting of Indigenous Students in Brazil: shared reflections ; Encuentro Nacional de Estudiantes Indígenas en Brasil: reflexiones compartidas ; Encontro Nacional de Estudantes Indígenas no Brasil: reflexões compartilhadas

This text is a critical review of the first four editions of the National Meeting of Indigenous Students (ENEI), an event that occurs annually in Brazil since 2013.

We consider that the disruptive presence of these people in the university can repopulate this space with knowledge and other looks, asking about the hegemonic model that founds and maintains it, generating transformations. ; Este texto presenta una sistematización crítica de las primeras cuatro ediciones del Encuentro Nacional de Estudiantes Indígenas (ENEI), evento que se realiza anualmente en Brasil desde 2013.
