Intercultural Bilingual Education and the Officialization of Culture in Perú

This paper examines differing perceptions of interculturalism in bilingual education in Quechua-speaking communities in the Cusco region of Perú and the relative success of state-run and other intercultural bilingual education (IBE) programs. There is general agreement about the importance of the cultural dimension in these programs. Nevertheless, there is a frequent mismatch between government-designed and implemented IBE programs and the attitudes of community members about how such programs should be delivered.
