This article reflects on the contributions of Afro-Colombian ethno-education to contemporary debates about reparation and dignification of conflict victims.We particularly want to highlight some features of experiments carried out in the Nariño Pacific recently by community organizations.While ethno-education emerged in the late twentieth century along with the Afro-Colombian social movement, the conditions surrounding many of its dynamic performance have changed dramatically due to situations such as illegal economies, the recruitment of children to war, State neglect and forced displacement plaguing many of the collective territories of black communities.In that sense, Afro-Colombian ethno-education project has suffered important changes, and new interpretations are required in the perspective of the pedagogies of dignification and African reparations.
