Our idea is to adapt Sugar according to cultural characteristics of the Nasa context.

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, taken from the chumbes.
  • Rhombus. One world view
  • Spiral. Social interaction levels

Spaces
