Talks and debates

Ma’ táan u pajtal a yaajkunsik ba’ax ma’ a k’ajóoli’ (You cannot love what you don't known)

One of the priority activities of Maaya K-Moots is to spread the Mayan language and culture. To this end, we have offered a series of online talks in different formats, in which teachers from our group and external guests debate, talk and discuss topics related on education, art, culture, traditions, etc., emphasising the importance of keeping alive the Mayan language. Thus, through this space, we open topics and culture typical of the Mayan world to all those who are interested in learning, not only about Mayan traditions, but also about the day-to-day life of Mayan comunities in the modern world.

We consider that education is the main tool for inclusion.

Organisers

Students and teachers freely organise these talks. The objective is to organise at least one discussion every second Sunday and sometimes several have been organised in a week. They are always advertised through the facebook page and broadcast freely for all those who want to see them. Those who have organised the most talks are:
