Abstract

In recent years, the indigenous population deprived of liberty has significantly increased in Chile, with the Quechua community being the second largest in prisons after the Mapuche people. However, this group surpasses the Mapuche, and other indigenous peoples, in the presence of incarcerated women. This study examined intercultural public policies related to incarcerated Quechua women, highlighting their difficult conditions and invisibility in the penal system. The implementation of these policies by authorities, specifically in the Metropolitan Region, was analyzed. The methodology included a review of regulations and interviews with Quechua women incarcerated in said region. Addressing this issue is crucial to ensure respect for human rights and effective social reintegration in an intercultural context, as well as the prevention and advancement of organized crime within prisons.
