** Catherine Walsh ** 
Catherine Walsh is a militant intellectual long involved in the processes and struggles for justice and social transformation, first in the United and, in the last more than 20 years, in Abya Yala (Latin America) and Ecuador where she has accompanied the struggles and processes of indigenous and Afro-descendant social movements. She is currently a senior professor and founding director of the doctoral program in Latin America (Inter)Cultural Studies at the Universidad Andina Simon Bolivar in Ecuador. For 10 years she was also the coordinator of the Afro-Andean Archive and Documentary Center and presently coordinates the Afro-Andean Catedra or Chair. She has been principally focused in the political, epistemic, ethical, and existence-based project of critical interculturality and decoloniality, taking as key themes the geopolitics of knowledge, ancestrality and life and existence based philosophies, education, law, the re-founding of state, decolonial pedagogies and thought, and struggles related to the idea of gender, and the rights of nature. She is most especially interested today in the decolonial “how” and the concrete practices of an “otherwise”. She is part of the modernity/(de)coloniality working group.
