From these spaces, paths are built that make it possible to rescue educational practices and revitalize the knowings and community knowledge that allow the development of thoughts for change, and that later, the thoughts are translated for the model, into practices to promote learning based on life and development with identity in contexts of diversity of indigenous, Afro-descendants and mestizos peoples for the promotion of intercultural citizenship

In this process, the present experimental work was developed, in the Science Laboratory of the University of the Autonomous Regions of the Nicaraguan Caribbean Coast (URACCAN), Nueva Guinea Campus, with the purpose of developing hygiene, cleaning and disinfection supplies, obtaining as results, solid soap, 4% sodium hypochlorite and 70% ethyl alcohol.

This article was based on the study entitled: "Creole families experiences in the rescue and revitalization of their collective identity in multicultural contexts", the dynamics of coexistence and predominant socialization in the Creole family that contribute to the strengthening of their identity have been analyzed. The methodology used was qualitative, cross-sectional, descriptive phenomenological aimed at the recognition of situations and behaviors through oral history to identify values, beliefs, norms and practices of the Afro-descendant people through interaction with the participants. It acquires relevance because identity gives it nourishment and a sense of belonging to a people. It is a construction that the members of the community carry out, based on the culture they possess. In addition to sharing their knowledge and practices, they also expressed their deep feelings about some cultural practices in the new generations, as well as the possibility of revitalizing them. The participants identified as the main weakening factor of the Creole identity the non-use of Creole as a mother tongue in the family, school and the church, mainly in children, adolescents and young people due to high migration of the Creole population, the reconfiguration of the neighborhood population and especially the non-implementation of the family model based on values.

A basic tour has been carried out on each concept dealt with, to guide us in understanding the challenges that the development and implementation of intercultural community accompaniment in multicultural contexts means, in order to ensure that peoples can raise their own voices in terms of their well-being physical, material and spiritual. The article follows an investigation with a qualitative vision, which starts from a conceptual and analytical documentary analysis on what is comprised of Intercultural community accompaniment, from the URACCAN perspective. This accompaniment to community development with an intercultural vision faces its challenges from its conceptualization and internalization in higher education institutions and the logic of its articulation to community development.
