Some universities in postcolonial settler nations such as N ew Z ealand and C anada have begun to acknowledge their need for a more inclusive approach toward indigenous cosmologies and epistemologies, lest they continue to alienate indigenous students; nevertheless such change is not proving easy for these universities. In the N orth A tlantic Region of N icaragua, there is however a community university which is successfully using higher education to empower indigenous and Creole students and intellectuals against a backdrop of long histories of racism, discrimination, poverty and marginalization. The pedagogic model in operation at the University of the Autonomous Regions of the N icaraguan C aribbean C oast is based on the concept of interculturality and aims to provide access to higher education for individual students but without losing sight of education as a collective good. The concept of interculturality and its articulation in diverse sites is of critical interest to postcolonial geography given its connections to the geopolitics of place and space and its origins in black and indigenous social movements in Latin America
