The population was made up of a probabilistic sample of the 30 families of indigenous descent in the parish. With the objective of analyzing the contribution of the indigenous culture in the Ramón Campaña parish to the process of construction of the Ecuadorian cultural identity to redefine its particularities. The contributions will focus on the theoretical order and will aim to revisit the contribution of indigenous culture in this parish, with characteristics and thematic axes that allow establishing its epistemic independence. Likewise, they will be oriented towards the introduction of theoretical considerations that serve to verify, from a better analytical framework, the specific conditions under which their preservation is contributed. It is concluded that the Ramón Campaña parish of the Pangua Canton in Ecuador needs to strengthen institutional, cantonal and parish work through strategic alliances, necessary reforms to its educational systems and joint and interdisciplinary work, to contribute to the preservation of cultural identity of the nation's indigenous peoples.
