Contribution
The alternative development paradigm of “Buen Vivir” supports community perspectives and inclusiveness as core of its vision. As an alternative to a human centered vision it offers an inclusive socio-ecological idea, which regards ´mother earth´ (Pachamama) as a being with own rights. This alternative vi-sion questions western concepts of development. It puts ecological, sociocul-tural, spiritual and political dimensions of an alternative path of development into play and suggests a new ethics of development. The concept of ´Buen Vivir´ wishes to establish solidarity economy, the rights for all beings on earth, the self-organization and self-governability of democratic communities as political and societal structure, spirituality, territory and autonomy, wisdom of nature and the ancestors and identity and by this is in a specific way oriented towards inclusion. South America has brought about those alternative developmental visions, which are articulated, supported and distributed by first nation thinkers and protagonists. There is different approaches and organizational models of ecological universities in Latin America, wishing to contribute to global solidarity for sustainable development, to ecosystem development and to be catalysts for sustainable development. The presentation discusses different concepts of alternative sustainability universities and their implicit and explicit notions of integral development models and inclusion.
