Abstract

The Andean cosmovision carries great wisdom, it is the very life of our ancestors present in the peoples of Abya Yala who maintain a dialogue, in a minga of work and history to transmit their knowledge from generation to generation, although the struggle continues to preserve their identity, memory and sovereignty. The academy has a great responsibility and that is to care for the history of our peoples, the great legacy of life in nature, the cosmos and Pachamama. The dialogue of knowledge must be permanent and authentic to maintain an intercultural education to awaken everyone's interest in diversity, to know the history and share the celebration of each of the four great raymikuna, not as folklore, but as an authentic life of relationship with the other to learn that in this worldview the year has 13 months of 28 days, divided into two equinoxes and two solstices, that the equinoxes are dedicated to Mother Moon and the solstices to Father Sun.
