BELL JIMENEZ, Ana Gabriela. Facts and Challenges Facing Bilingual Intercultural Education and Interculturalism: A Case Study of Afro-Costa Ricans. Educación [online]. 2020, vol.44, n.2, pp.631-648. ISSN 2215-2644. http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/revedu.v44i2.39338.
This essay argues that Intercultural Bilingual Education (IBE) and interculturality have not yet fulfilled their intended goal with regards to Afro-Costa Ricans. This study delves into the concepts of IBE and interculturality based on both historical and current reference points underpinned by sociological, anthropological and pedagogical perspectives. The methodology used for this study was based on analysis of historical, academic and legal documents as well an interview conducted with a leading Costa Rican Intercultural Education policy-maker. The last section considers an intercultural and bilingual educational program by and for Afro-Costa Ricans.
