-Personal space:
+Our goal is to adapt Sugar according to cultural characteristics of the [http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasa Nasa] context. The design described here was designed and evaluated collectively with teachers and students of two Nasa schools, located in mountains of the Cauca department in Colombia.
+(Add picture of design session)
+First, we would take advantage of the three Sugar's "spaces", home, group and neighborhood, to provide in the interface analogies to those three spaces:
+* A personal space
+* The hearth
+* The resguardo (reserve?)
+=Collective work=
+Mingas
+=Symbols=
+* The kid representation. The buddy icon used has been based on the human representations found in the chumbes (ribbon tejido) were Nasa documents elements of their daily-life.
+* Rhombus. The rhombus is an important Nasa symbol, which means a World view. Rhombus can be found in handicrafts, bags, dances, paintings and a wide range of cultural manifestations.
+* Spiral. The rhombus relates to another ubiquitous symbol, the spiral, which stands for time and life development. It link been used to describe the diffent levels of social interaction: the hearth, the house garden, the resguardo, the municipality, the department, and so on.
+* Garabatos and bags. Used to store different kinds of objects, tools, and food, hanged up, out of the reach of animals.
