However, this law remains budding when it aims to offer elements of interculturality that allow its effective appropriation. Faced with this, an accompaniment is proposed to the community of Choromandó in the co-creation of a peace proposal, adapting the Victims’ Law to their needs within the framework of agreements with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) in Havana (Cuba). Through a participatory design, in accordance with the conceptual and methodological assumptions both of the research-action-participation of Orlando Fals Borda, and of intercultural communication of Edward Hall, a series of demands that start from the understanding of the Embera worldview is established, which underlies its indissoluble space-time dimension, until the validation of its autonomy, which translates into the preservation of its identity, stemmed from the filiation to the territory. The aspects of interculturality that were significant in the process included the following: Non-verbal communication and paralanguage, the diverse value of space and time (polytopia and polychrome) to understand the interrelations of the settlers (proxemia), and the joint work with the mestizo population to replace the lack of knowledge of the native language, and to enter into the communication practices of a culture without a written language.</p&gt;}, number={32}, journal={Anagramas Rumbos y Sentidos de la Comunicación}, author={Betancur Prisco, Lina Marcela and Vásquez Restrepo, Mariana and Betancur Rodríguez, Víctor Hugo and Herrera Pulgarin, Jose Julian}, year={2018}, month={Jun.}, pages={129-146} }
