This article aims to mention and deepen the intercultural education and worldview of the Awá people, a community that lives in Colombian land, very particular in their customs, in their feelings and in their relationship with nature, as an integrality with the human being. The worldview is one of the fundamental parts of their spirituality; it constitutes knowledge and deep thinking. Within this spirituality it’s possible to mention their origin, the home and the possibility of existence, such as nature; and within their interiority, through the elderly, cosmogonic coloniality or mother nature, regarding the vital-magical-spiritual force of the existence of Afro-descendant and indigenous communities, each with their historical particularities. In this context of interiority, the Law of origin is worthy of recognition, which is constituted in principle of self-education. This article aims to raise the voice of educators who manage to understand the scope of the defense of their own education, the intercultural, which are salvageable in favor of the welfare of a people who defend their rights.
