Abstract

This research addresses the diversity of meanings which give indigenous Kichwa of the Ambato Canton, in the province of Tungurahua, poverty; it recovers the memory of childhood, in an environment of deficiencies; stories are a debate with their circumstances and rests on the reading of current situation, so it allows them to look like survivors of a context of deficiencies, and others, manifested as those who face a worse situation that it had in its infancy. The results of the article privileged voice of the subjects, since what matters is the gaze of the people from their positions and conditions, and identify how intersect its past and its present; a story that is indisputably varnished multi-layered concepts and that is in a permanent construction. But whose contribution should be considered for the public and institutional.
