| Abstract | La salud de los pueblos indigenas se esta convirtiendo en un asunto preferente de las politicas nacionales e internacionales. Instituciones como la Organizacion Mundial de la Salud, han disenado acciones en pro de la mejora de estos servicios. Estas se topan a menudo con numerosas dificultades para llegar a hacerse efectivas y lograr los resultados esperados. Legar a conseguir un acceso fluido a estos sistemas de salud es muy importante, consiguiendo a su vez, que convivan con la medicina tradicional que sigue existiendo en muchas areas indigenas. En Brasil y Mexico se ha desarrollado politicas destinadas al acceso a los sistemas medicos de las poblaciones indigenas, con diversos resultados. Una de las soluciones para lograr un adecuado sistema de salud, seria lograr un enfoque intercultural de dicha salud.A pesar del avance notable alcanzado en muchas areas, el logro de la equidad en torno a la salud todavia se encuentra pendiente para la mayoria de los pueblos indigenas de las Americas.

Bound-accessing Health System policies have been developed for indigenous peoples from Brazil and Mexico with different results One of the solutions to achieve a proper Healthcare System would be creating an intercultural approach of it. Despite having reached notable advances in so many areas, the achievement of Healthcare equity is still pending for the majority of the indigenous' peoples from the Americas. |
