Presentation
This International Program is an innovative and intregrative proposal of different Faculties of the Universidad Autónoma de Chile, Indigenous organizations and Government agencies, that for long years have realized a joint work and that allows to offer a experience, very practical and integrated to the indigenous reality to the international students who participate in it.
To this end, students will have the possibility to develop different activities from an experiential perspective in such a way that they have the opportunity to be linked directly with the richness of the Mapuche people culture through their participation in everyday environments with families, traditional authorities and Mapuche communities of the Region of La Araucanía and that allows them to discover the different realities of the Mapuche communities according to the territorial spaces occupied by this culture that correspond to
four territorial identities:
• Lafkenche People of the coast, west area of the Nahuelbuta mountain.
• Nagche Abajinos, eastern slope of the Nahuelbuta mountain.
• Pewenche Pewen people, from Los Andes mountain)
• Wenteche People of the central valley and Cautin river.
Furthermore, during the development of the Program, students will have the opportunity to integrate with different Research Centers and Faculties of the University that have worked, from different levels with the Mapuche culture, as well as to integrate workshops developed by the Department of Affairs Students of the Universidad Autónoma de Chile in Campus Temuco.

It was founded on February 24, 1881 in a privileged environment, surrounded by the Rio Cautín and Cerro Ñielol. It was born as a consequence of a military task, reason why in its beginnings Temuco had the characteristics of a camp and, a year after its birth, the streets that today make up the agitated center of the regional capital were already insinuating.
The diverse and nurturing group of men and women who had the task of raising this city, never imagined its vertiginous growth. Shortly after, in 1888, the authorities that conformed the first Municipality were already chosen.
Its multiethnic population has been characterized by the high percentage of Mapuche population and the arrival of numerous German and French settlers. The rapid growth of inhabitants was appreciated in the early years; In 1895 a census established a population of 7,708 people and, when the province of Cautín was created, when Temuco became capital, this number increased to 16,037.
