10 years of Law No. 11,645/08: Advances and challenges

Abstract

This article analyzes the 10 years of Law 11.645/08, which established the obligation of teaching History and indigenous culture in public and private schools. The main objective of this paper is to show how the law has been established, the progress and challenges of this issue in the context of public schools, universities and training centers in the state of Mato Grosso. I present aspects of Normative Resolution No. 001/2003/CEE-MT, which in recent years proposed actions for the implementation of Law 11.645 in the state. The way how indigenous issues have been accepted in the curricula of the courses of the Mato Grosso universities was also analyzed.
