V International Congress of Indigenous Worlds – Poland

PRESENTATION

The International Congress on Indigenous Worlds (COIMI) takes place every two years and was launched as part of the Permanent Seminar on Indigenous Worlds - Abya Yala (SEPMIAI) at the Center for Humanities (CHAM/NOVA FCSH—UAC) at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal, together with the Universidade Federal de Campina Grande, Paraíba, Brazil, on April 27-28, 2015. In 2017, the SEPMIAI/CHAM- UNL group organized the II COIMI, with the support of the Pablo Olavide University, Seville, Spain, and in 2019 we started to organize the event also with the Sorbonne University, Paris, France. This year, 2024, the V COIMI – Europe will also take place in Warsaw, Poland, at the Institute of History of the Polish Academy of Sciences, Poland, with the central theme: Sources and Interethnic Narratives about Indigenous Peoples in the Past and their Reflections in the Present. COIMI is a space for building a larger collaborative network on a national and international level for discussions on topics related to the indigenous peoples of the Americas in the past and present. The V COIMI- Europe aims to expand the dialog between indigenous and non-indigenous researchers so that opportunities can be created for new epistemological, historical, documentary, anthropological, pedagogical, and other interdisciplinary avenues.
