THE SCIENTIFIC PRODUCTION ON INDIGENOUS EDUCATION IN BRAZIL: A NARRATIVE REVIEW

The indigenous education in Brazil has its founding milestone with the first catechetical actions of the Jesuits in the second half of the XVI. In this long trajectory until the days the education of the indigenous peoples that inhabit the Brazilian territory has been the object of controversies and discussions, both at governmental and academic level and generated numerous studies. The aim of this work was to identify and describe, through a narrative review, the scientific production produced by the researchers who study the subject and published their studies in different publication channels: theses and dissertations, books, collections and articles. At the end of the study it was possible to identify a scientific production composed of several documentary typologies about the theme of indigenous education from several areas of knowledge.
