Sumario:This paper analyzes, in an introductory way, the role that a group of women had in an indigenous organization in the early 1980s, in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA).The Centro Kolla (CENKO) is taken as a case study and seeks to describe the organization, through the roles and modes of participation of women. The latter were a group made up of indigenous and non-indigenous people from different places and with multiple professions. It is proposed that the organization was a space that included women in its different actions, although it was organized under patriarchal logic. The work focuses on the participation of CENKO women in the first National Meeting of Women (ENM). This participation allows us to point out the positions that the organization had on gender issues. For this purpose, Indianism is investigated, a paradigm that organized the actions of CENKO. The article was produced through the analysis of different materials that the organization produced and by conducting interviews with women and men who were leaders of the organization
